The Difference – Red Top

THE DIFFERENCE

NO ONE EVER MADE A DIFFERENCE BY BEING JUST LIKE EVERYONE ELSE...
AT RED TOP, OUR PASSION IS TO BE DARINGLY DIFFERENT.

WHY BE DIFFERENT

Traditional style wines served in a traditional style tasting room is fine... but in our opinion there is a demand for something a little unique. We strive to meet that demand and we hope it shows in the style of our wines & ciders, and the experience in our tap room.

THE WINE

Yes, our wine is made from the grapes we grow here on our farm, our cider comes from apples grown on our neighbors farm, but then we get creative. We age some of our wines & ciders in interesting barrels that were used for bourbon, brandy, tequila, etc. Some of our wines & ciders spend time “co-mingling” with characters such as jalapenos, peaches, cinnamon, pineapples and so on (not all in the same wine or cider).

We love sparkling wines & ciders, in fact roughly half of all our products on tap are sparkling.

Less than common grape varieties are used extensively. Varieties like Chambourcin, Zweigelt, Vignoles, Seyval, Traminette form the backbone of many of our products.

We love experimenting with different wines & ciders, they always turn out interesting! We would be insane if we thought every single person was going to love every single product we make, we know it just won’t happen, but it sure is fun to try!

THE EXPERIENCE

Our “tasting room” at Red Top is slightly unconventional… on purpose! So at Red Top, we… Will tell you about the unique aspects of our wines & ciders (as mentioned above), but will not bore you with stuff you don’t care about.

Serve all of our wines & ciders on tap. Instead of pouring out of bottles which allows the wines & ciders to come into contact with oxygen, we keep all of our products fresh by serving them from kegs on tap (plus its a lot less bottles thrown into the landfill).

Have interesting and fun decor adorning the “tasting room”

Play laid back reggae music (except for Saturday afternoons in the summer and fall when we have live music).

Have tons of outdoor seating where you can bring picnic baskets and enjoy!

Are unpretentious…. come, have fun, don’t worry about feeling uncomfortable if you don’t know the proper terminology…. we are a no judgement experience!
