About Pugliese Vineyards

The winery's location at 34515 Main Rd, Cutchogue, NY 11935 makes it easy to plan the visit as a defined stop rather than a vague regional detour. A good New York wine trip mixes producers of different scales and styles, and Pugliese Vineyards can help create that contrast in Long Island. If you only have time for a short stop, make it deliberate.
Ask for two or three wines that show the winery's range and include one bottle with a strong connection to the local region when available.
