Fueled by the success of their Northport winery — as well as continued demand for pinot grigio — the owners of Del Vino Vineyards have purchased a 30-acre farm in Riverhead and said they will convert the land to a vineyard and tasting room.
Co-owner Fred Giachetti said he expects grapevines to be planted next year on what was long known as Krupski Farm, and the tasting room to open “in two to three years,” after the vines begin producing fruit — namely, pinot grigio, sauvignon blanc, cabernet franc and petite syrah grapes, with moscato and malbec to follow.
Del Vino Vineyards' expansion to Riverhead sounds like a great idea, especially given the increased demand for high-quality wines like pinot grigio and cabernet franc. Krupski Farm's transformation into a vineyard and tasting room will undoubtedly attract wine enthusiasts. Anyone researching corporate growth techniques may use this as a case study—ideal for a marketing assignment help discussion.
