Great News for
Wine Club Members
As Long Island's first vineyard, Castello di Borghese Vineyard & Winery has nearly three decades of experience in growing the noble grape, vitis vinifera, in eastern Long Island's unique maritime microclimate.
Our vines were first planted in 1973, and we still harvest grapes from many of those original plants. Since the first vintage was harvested in 1975 and released in 1977, critics have hailed our wines as more than worthy competitors in the international wine world.
Our wines show power and grace, and their aging potential is apparent when our Archive Wines are matched alongside highly touted competitors from France or California.
Castello di Borghese wines can be found in top liquor stores and restaurants throughout New York state, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Connecticut and Delaware.
Our goal has always been to create elegant, well-balanced wines. In a recent blind tasting competition of Long Island vs. the World, our Barrel Fermented Chardonnay unanimously surpassed a well known, more expensive French Chardonnay. The Borgheses intend to plant Italian varietals in the near future, such as Sangiovese and Nebbiolo, both of which will add yet another taste and regional dimension to our wines.
We insist that a wine reflect a combination of terroir and variety, and above all, that it have character and aromatics. We firmly believe that the carpenter of the vine is the architect of the wine. Of course the best judge of a wine is your palate, so please join us in our tasting room to taste a range of our wines and to see the fields where the vines are grown.
The CdB Gift Shop
Castello di Borghese has a unique gift shop located in our new tasting room. There you will find some highly exclusive, eclectic wine and food gifts for your shopping desires.
All our wines need is the pleasure of your company.
