Fueled by the success of their Northport winery — as well as continued demand for pinot grigio — the owners of Del Vino Vineyards have purchased a 30-acre farm in Riverhead and said they will convert the land to a vineyard and tasting room.
Co-owner Fred Giachetti said he expects grapevines to be planted next year on what was long known as Krupski Farm, and the tasting room to open “in two to three years,” after the vines begin producing fruit — namely, pinot grigio, sauvignon blanc, cabernet franc and petite syrah grapes, with moscato and malbec to follow.
