Domhnall Vineyards & Winery
Welcome to the Mohawk Valley’s Premiere Vineyard and Winery. Come enjoy exceptional wines from an entirely new area of Central New York.
Beginning almost a decade ago, eager to prove this area has the potential to produce quality wine grapes, we began a long journey testing several areas around the Valley searching for the ideal vineyard location. After four years, we discovered a site, which would prove to produce excellent quality wine grapes.
