Winemaker’s Walk – North Fork, Long Island Winery & Vineyard

Published by under Wine Books

At Castello di Borghese Vineyard and Winery, Long Island's premier winery owned by Marco and Ann Marie Borghese, the ongoing tours of the facility, called Winemaker's Walk, include a visit to the wine cellar where guests can get an insiders view of the process of making fine wine. The walk was conducted by Ann Marie Borghese, owner of Borghese Vineyard, who answers guests' questions as she expertly guides the tour of the winery's production facilities.
Additionally (weather permitting), the Winemaker's Walk includes a stroll through the 84-acre vineyard where visitors gain further winemaking insight by learning about the different grape varieties and growing procedures at Castello di Borghese. As the vineyard awakens in early spring, guests will witness the careful pruning of vines that has taken place -- an integral part of vineyard management that lays the foundation for the harvest. The leisurely walk concludes at the tasting room where visitors can sample the flavor of various wines. The favorite wine flight is Borgheses' Classic Tasting.
