What becomes a Ph.D. in genetics most? Apparently, making wine!

At least that is the strong impression I get when I enjoy Red Tail Ridge wines.

Located in the Finger Lakes of New York, Red Tail Ridge was created and is run by Dr. Nancy Irelan, who has used her advanced studies to specialize in viticulture and oenology.

Crafted on a LEED Gold-certified, sustainable 35-acre estate that resembles the microclimates of Europe’s finest wine regions, Red Tail Ridge also benefits from the West Coast backgrounds of Dr. Irelan and her husband. The dynamic duo makes about 9,000 cases each year and the hand-picked care shines through in every taste of their Riesling, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Cab Franc. In recent years, they have expanded their menus to include reds with roots in Germany and Austria as well. No matter what you try, however, you will see why Red Tail Ridge was New York’s first winery to be recognized by the James Beard Foundation and why many of their wines have been selected as finalists for the James Beard Award for Outstanding Wine!

It is PhD good!
