Winemaker Notes
A "Wine is like poetry" So stated Robert Louis Stevenson, and how befitting that this analogy should be drawn. For good wine, like good poetry, has the power to raise the spirit to a heightened level of awareness and satisfy the soul.
Pindar, the name derived from the great Hellenic poet from Sparta, was founded in 1979 by the entrepreneurial Dr. Herodotus "Dan" Damianos. Starting off with just thirty acres of uncultivated land, Dr. Damianos envisioned the grand possibilities for his fledgling vineyard. His dream is being actualized for the ever expanding Pindar currently encompasses nearly 550 acres of prime viticultural property and is Long Island's largest and most prestigious vineyard. Sixteen different vinifera varieties are grown at Pindar including Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Chardonnay, and lesser known varieties such as Viognier and Syrah.
Whether designing a proprietary blend or a rich, elegant, pure varietal, Pindar takes meticulous care and pride in producing the finest wine available for consumption. In doing so Pindar has become a name synonymous with quality and reliability. So we welcome you to sample our liquid poetry, and be moved!
