Summer Season Begins at the Winery

The weather is warming up, the vineyard is green and lush and the Millbrook tasting room is bustling!
We have officially “kicked off” the season with Memorial Day now in the recent past. The hours for the tasting room have been expanded with an 11 a.m. daily opening and a 6 p.m. closing. Come by during the week and discover how wonderful it is to visit the winery during the week when things are a little more laid back, quiet and relaxed.
Speaking of the tasting room, our team has made some great changes which we hope will enhance your visit. We have expanded the main level tasting room bars to accommodate larger groups. Don’t forget to take time for browsing around the revamped gift shop! Everyday new and unique items are arriving and being stocked... Of course no visit is complete without purchasing some of our award winning, and delicious wines to take home or enjoy right here while lazing the day away down by the ponds.

I can’t help but get excited to have met so many people from all over the world. Not only have we had many people visit from Europe and every state in the Union, but more and more folks are coming by who live within a 70 mile radius. Perhaps Millbrook’s exposure at Farm Markets in Westchester and Brooklyn, N.Y. is helping to spread the word about our world class wine and bucolic country estate. Of course don’t take my word for it, stop by or better yet, attend one of our many events this season. You still may purchase tickets for our first ever Summer Solstice Lobster Bake in the Vineyard. I can’t imagine eating Lobster in a more beautiful setting. If Lobster and Chardonnay is not your “thing”, consider signing up for one of our Wine & Food Pairing seminars led by CIA Wine Instructors Steven Kolpan and Michael Weiss. As the months go by we have many more events taking place. Can you believe your luck? A world class winery right here in Millbrook, New York. Visit us and see why “I Drink N.Y.” -Barbara Best
