We had a great experience at Kontacosta Winery. From start to finish, everything just hit right…read more We started with a red wine flight, which was a perfect way to get a feel for what they offer. Every pour was solid, and it made it easy to narrow down what we liked. Our server/bartender JR was fantastic--super knowledgeable, easygoing, and made great recommendations without being pushy. We ended up going with a bottle of Merlot they suggested, and it was excellent. Smooth, well-balanced, and exactly what we were hoping for after the tasting. Honestly, just a fantastic wine. And I we also got a whiskey that sampled great. Exited to have it! Between the quality of the wine and the service, it made for a really enjoyable experience. It was on the beach and we loved checking out. But the main area was super cool! Definitely a super cool Albany spot we'll be back to.

In one direction you have a cliff where you get to look down at the beach and water... then if you turn around you get to look back at the main house of the vineyard. It is so vast in the distance and something about the reclaimed wood with red accents just got me going. SO BEAUTIFUL. We were able to walk right up to the counter and try the different options of wine they offered. The staff was super helpful in helping us decide what we wanted. (They had spritz options also!)

Sit outside and enjoy the flock of chickens coming up to you. And the wine was delicious as well!

The vineyard is beautiful, peaceful, and well kept, with open views and a relaxed atmosphere that makes it easy to unwind and enjoy your surroundings. It feels calm and welcoming without being crowded or overwhelming. The service was good throughout our visit. The staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful when it came to explaining the wines and guiding tastings. Everything felt organized and unhurried, which allowed us to really take our time and enjoy the experience.

A strong four star destination.

Step inside, though, and boom--you're transported into an elegant, beautifully designed dining room that feels straight out of a Michelin dream. We waited a bit for our table, but they handed us complimentary champagne, so... patience restored. The $125 prix-fixe menu was worth every bite. Picking a favorite course feels like choosing between yourbfavorite child . The milk bread, oysters, and baked clams were standouts. That celery vinaigrette on the oysters was next level. The agnolotti pasta was unforgettable. I had the baked chicken entrée and discovered a new obsession with turnip cakes. Who knew? Dessert sealed the deal: molten chocolate cake and passion fruit panna cotta. An absolutely perfect mic drop to end the meal. If I had to nitpick, the drink prices lean toward Manhattan territory. But overall, I'm a huge fan and rooting hard for this spot. If you're anywhere near Greenport or Southold, do yourself a favor and book it.

The Berry and Beet dessert melted in my mouth with a surprise in the center;) Simply elegant, like a fine French restaurant. We left completely awed and satiated.

Guests were coming up for seconds and thirds of the assorted main dishes. The night was topped off with freshly ground and brewed coffees as well as espresso and a assortment of fragrant teas They left the kitchen spotless Grace and Grit is far and away one of the best catering teams I've every experienced.
