Wendy Baldwin-Landolina,
In 1982, the Baldwins purchased a farm which had been the Hardenburgh Estate since 1786. The estate included a stone home and 18,000 square feet of outbuildings situated on 37 acres of prime alluvial farmland.
In the 40 years since, Baldwin Vineyards has garnered awards for their Chardonnay, Merlot, Riesling, Landot Noir, Port, and a dozen other wines, as well as pioneered New York’s entry into the premium fruit wine category.
Savor This
New York International Wine Competition named Baldwin Vineyards “New York State Fruit Winery of the Year” in 2020 and 2021. Baldwin’s Apple Wine was awarded a Double Gold Medal, and proclaimed “Best of Show” in the prestigious Finger Lakes International Wine Competition!
The Baldwins’ philosophy on fruit wines, which began a trend throughout the entire Northeast, was to vinify fruit wines as premium varietal wines. Instead of making the fruit wines dry, as was the tradition, the Baldwins finished many of their fruit wines so they tasted like the fruit they started from.
Starting with their Strawberry Wine in 1985, they have since added Apple, Blueberry Merlot, Black Raspberry, and Spiced Apple wines which have also won many more awards over the years. Baldwin’s Spiced Apple Wine garnered a Gold Medal and a 95/100 points in 2020. Their Strawberry Wine took a Gold at the Finger Lakes International Wine Competition. Baldwin’s Apple Wine garnered a Double Gold Medal and Best Fruit Wine at the Finger Lakes International Wine Competition, and the Best Fruit Wine in New York State at the New York Food and Wine Classic.
Baldwin Vineyards was named New York State Fruit Winery of the Year at the New York International Wine Competition in 2020 and 2021.

MEET THE WINEMAKERS
Celebrating 40 Years!
Pat and Jack Baldwin first opened Baldwin’s doors in 1982. In December 2014 the torch was passed, and the second generation of Baldwin winemakers took the helm.
Pat and Jack’s daughter, Wendy Baldwin-Landolina and her husband Alex Landolina studied for many years under the tutelage of their parents. Now they create the same fine crafted wines that the Baldwin family has created for the last 40 years.
Baldwin Winery produces small batches of each of their wines. If you have a favorite, definitely stock up while it is available.
