South Salem Winery is Westchester county’s first NYS micro winery. The relationship between the vintner and the property owner dates back almost thirty years.  The vintner started making wine with his grandfather as a young boy and then as a teenager with his father in New York City. 

After moving to Westchester County  in 1995 he began making wine of his own in South Salem NY,  John(the vintner) has been sharing his vintages for more than two decades with many of the local townspeople and business owners of South Salem. The property owner Tom Gossett of Gossett Bros Nursery is a local icon in South Salem whose contribution to the local community is unsurpassed as he and his family have opened the door for John and his wine making abilities. Together they have formed a one-of-a-kind union of a micro-winery within a garden nursery.
