Kontokosta Winery
Kontokosta Winery sits on Long Island's North Fork, where maritime influence and glacial soils shape the vineyard's character. The winery produces Sauvignon Blanc with the crisp minerality and aromatic intensity the region's cool climate encourages, alongside red wines built on Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon—grapes that thrive in Long Island's extended growing season. The Sauvignon Blanc has earned recognition from Wine Enthusiast, Wine Advocate, Decanter, Falstaff, and Wine Spectator. The Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon have similarly attracted attention from the same panel of prestige critics. North Fork's terroir—shaped by Atlantic breezes and well-drained vineyard sites—allows these varieties to develop with balance and structure.
