"If you have time to visit only ONE Hudson Valley winery - make it Rivendell." Time Out New York "One of America's 26 Most Reliable Chardonnay Producers." Wines & Spirits Magazine "A prime example of the remarkable change in New York State wines is Rivendell in New Paltz which has been a leader in the turnaround. Embracing the vinification and marketing of classical European varietals, Rivendell has succeeded in altering the public's dated conception of Empire State wines. Along the way it has become the state's most honored winery, gaining an alchemists horde of Gold Medals and plaudits from experts and critics." Robert Schoolsky "Rivendell is the top producer in New York State. The wines they have released for the past few years have set quality standards for other New York wineries to follow... with wines this good, Rivendell could set the standard by which not only New York, but California will follow." Alan Danielson "BEST VALUE" The New York Wine Competition "OUTSTANDING" The New York Times "Rivendell ... has a deft hand at turning out flavorful wines." The Wine & Food Companion "Some of the best come from Rivendell!" Frank Prial, New York Times "New York continues to show progress, and the wines of Rivendell show well. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED and BEST BUY!" The Wine Spectator Magazine "Exceptional Quality across the board!" The American Wine Competition
