Situated at the threshold of the Adirondack mountains, Prospect Falls is Oneida County’s first licensed winery. The inviting tasting room offers wines and locally crafted items.
Wines include:
Roaring Falls Red – A beautifully smoky, dry red blend with an earthen nose and lovely, rich, but soft, mouth feel. Flavors of plum and black current present early on with caramelized nutty finish. Fabulous for barbecues and cookouts.
Merlot – There’s nothing “soft” about this dry, big, bold example of the varietal, with a wonderfully rich cherry nose followed by lush notes of coffee and dark chocolate-covered cherries. A little pop of acidity on the tongue subsides into an exceptionally smooth, warm and lingering wine.
Lean To – Drink enough of this semi-sweet “Adult Grape Juice” and you’ll lean, too. A blend conspired to create sweet mayhem with delightful, fruity flavors of fresh, ripe cranberries and violet flowers. Super easy to drink and enjoy, this may be your wine “gateway drug.”
Cascading White – A clean, crisp and bright off-dry wine featuring bold flavors of pear, green apple, white flower and honeysuckle with a smooth mineral finish. Pair with soft cheeses, chicken dishes, fruit and walnut salads.
Edelweiss – A semi-dry with a vibrant, floral bouquet in the nose with notes of citrus, especially limes and lemon peel, on the palate. Full bodied with an acidic Granny Smith Apple end note. The clean flavors of this versatile wine lend themselves well to fish dishes and white pasta.
Shard – A semi-sweet blend of wines with a bright, green grape beginning and beautiful soft mouthfeel with lingering notes of starfruit, apricot, and honey a the back end. A fantastic easy-drinking wine.
