Rock Stream Vineyards is an estate winery owned and operated by Dr. Mark Karasz. Mark has a PhD in chemistry and spent 3 years in Italy learning wine and Grappa production. After returning from Italy, he founded Rock Stream Vineyards and began growing his own grapes, making and bottling wine, brandy, Grappa and ports and designing and printing his own labels. The new tasting room on Route 14 and Fir Tree Point Road has been open since July 23rd, 2005 and is now Seneca Lake’s only licensed Grappa and Grape Brandy distillery. The vineyard has 40 acres of vines producing 230 tons of grapes annually to supply several large wineries. Using a small fraction of the production, the winery focuses on producing premium, hand-crafted wines in small batches. The wines undergo a long, cool fermentation in small stainless steel tanks to concentrate flavor and bouquet. The result is a clean, crisp, and balanced taste that truly makes Rock Stream wine “The Wine of Your Life.”®

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
