Husband-and-wife-duo Tom, and Cynthia Rosicki, founded Sparkling Pointe Winery in 2004 with a dedication to the exclusive production of Méthode Champenoise Sparkling Wines. In 2009 Sparkling Pointe’s state-of-the-art méthode champenoise winemaking facility was completed and the grand Tasting House opened to the public. Focusing on traditional varieties (Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier), grapes are sustainably grown on three vineyard sites spanning 40 acres. The early sparkling wine harvest allows for consistent ripening within the cool and breezy conditions of the North Fork AVA and resulting wines have a freshness and vibrancy, even after many years of lees aging. With over 12 unique cuvées, Sparkling Pointe offers a bubbly for every palate. Sparkling Pointe wines have been consistently acknowledged as some of the best in the New York wine region, earning 90+ points from Wine Advocate, Wine Enthusiast, and Wine Spectator. Tastings and private events are held in the VIP Bubble Lounge, Grand Tasting House, or outside on the Terrace and great lawn overlooking the vineyard.
