Benmarl Winery was founded in 1957
by noted artist and Romantic Art Illustrator, Mark Miller. Miller, a pioneer
in early N.Y. state Viticulture, helped to bring about legislation for
the N.Y. State Farm Winery Act of which Benmarl holds license #1.
Located on 37 scenic acres overlooking the Hudson River and Berkshire
Mountains beyond, the Burgundian styled buildings lend an air of Europe
to the Valley. Our estate wine, French Hybrid Baco Noir, recently won
the H.V.G.G.A. Cornell Cup for Best wine in the Hudson Valley A.V.A. as
well as three gold medals. Our 37 acres are being replanted with additional
Baco grape as well as Traminette. Our gift shop carries a full array of
our wines including whites, reds (syrah, zinfandel, cabernet, etc.) as
well as sweets. We also offer many gourmet food items and a selection
of unique and hard to find wine gifts.
In addition to Wine Trail events, not to miss annual events at Benmarl
include: Valentines Wine & Chocolate Pairings, Spring Barrel Tasting,
Winemaker Workshop series, Seasonal Outdoor Concerts, Harvest Grape Stomping
Festival on Columbus Day Weekend and Holiday Candlelight Open House.
