Harbes Vineyard

THE STORY BEHIND THE PLACE

History & heritage

Harbes established its vineyard in 2003 on a south-facing slope near Long Island Sound. Initial Chardonnay and Merlot plantings were joined by Chenin Blanc, Sauvignon Blanc and Cabernet Franc in 2019, then Malbec in 2024.

WHAT TO EXPECT

The vineyard experience

The Mattituck Wine Barn occupies a renovated century-old potato barn within the wider Harbes farm setting. Visitors can combine interest in the vineyard with the surrounding agricultural destination, but should check separate farm activities and admission arrangements rather than assume they are included. Seating in the Wine Barn is first come, first served.

THE WINES

A sense of their style

The estate emphasizes sustainable viticulture and lists ten acres of vines. Its range reflects the original Merlot and Chardonnay foundation alongside later plantings, with sparkling and dessert-wine styles also documented.

Styles describe the producer’s range, not a live tasting menu or inventory. Offerings change by vintage and season.
