Wine Tasting in New York

Anyone else love wine tasting? This past weekend Caleb and I joined my parents wine tasting in the New York wine country. We’ve always been a big fan of wine tasting in Sonoma, but this was my first time tasting in New York. And let me tell you, it did not disappoint! While I still prefer the flavors of California wines, the views from New York wine country were gorgeous! To our left we saw vineyards and to our right we saw salt water. It was the best of both worlds! And according to the wine houses, the New York wine will only continue getting better as the vines age.

One the first day we visited Sparkling Pointe {a champagne style house- we liked the blanc de blanc best}, McCall {we enjoyed their merlot reserves and rosé best, although they are known for their pinot noir}, Kontokosta {gorgeous view, okay wines- a must at sunset just for the view}, and Lieb {we enjoyed every red and sparkling wine we had here. and their cheese board was divine!}.

We stayed in a cute historic Victorian home built in 1905 in Greenport, Long Island. We were within walking distance to the marina, vineyards, restaurants and shopping. If you ever come out to New York to go wine tasting, I would HIGHLY recommend Greenport for a home base. It is the cutest little town with everything you could hope for! And I will almost always choose renting a home over a hotel on holiday- even if you don’t intend to cook.

Stay tuned for day 2!

    Wow – New York wine country is beautiful! I’ve only ever visited the city, but this is reason enough to travel further afield next time I’m on the east coast. Love your photos too!

      Next time you make it out to the city, you MUST add a couple days and visit the wine country- specifically in spring summer or fall!

    You and your pictures are so gorgeous Chloe! I love vineyards, they always feel so tranquil or maybe I always just have too much wine!
