Long Island Wine Council Claimed

When you visit the Long Island Wine Region, you share in the pride that we have for our people, our land and the culture that make us unique. A visit to the East End demonstrates the close, seasonal connection between land and table as wonderful local products are picked, harvested or produced daily and displayed at the height of ripeness, perfectly complimenting our wines.

Alex and Louisa Hargrave planted the first Long Island vineyard in 1973 in the town of Cutchogue, N.Y. They were followed by a group of pioneering investors, grape growers and winemakers with extraordinarily diverse backgrounds from all over the world. Their shared vision and experience in traditional winemaking practices created a rich, yet unique, culture that began to catch the attention of wine experts from all around the word.

Now, more than forty years later, the region has grown into one of the most exciting up-and-coming wine regions in the country.
