Review from Jason M.

Honestly one of my favorite wineries in the entire Hudson Valley. Usually, it seems that a place makes great fruit wines, and terrible grape wines, or vice versa. Not Baldwin. I frankly love most every wine they make.
Even their "cheap house white," Mist Di Greco, is one of my favorite white wines around. They don't bombard it with sugar, or mess around with fancy barrels, it's just a good fresh white wine.
And no review of Baldwin would be complete without mention of their Strawberry wine... I know, strawberry-flavored alcohol is not the manliest substance on the face of the earth, but this stuff is so delicious, I just don't care. I mean it when I say that this is the pure essence of strawberries...
The drive is worth it. Orange County is a beautiful part of the world, and clearly a great wine area. Stop at Baldwin, and you'll surely be leaving with a bag of bottles to take home. -

Don't drink and yelp. Don't drink and yelp Don't drink and yelp.
Um, why not? I am at present enjoying a nice glass, or four, of Baldwin New York State Port. It goes down nice and easy and is quite warming in this autumn chill.
The L. and I recently made our purchase from the winery in person though Baldwin is available at our local megaboozery. The port's color is a beautiful garnet like many of the leaves falling around me. For $35 a bottle it was a risk but luckily it worked out well.
The gentleman from whom we purchased the Port as well as a bottle of Ice Wine was very cordial (get it!) and though we did not do a tasting since it was the afternoon during the week, his passion for the product gave us the confidence that our purchases would not be in vain.
Though they are most known for their award-winning strawberry wine I would like to humbly suggest they enter this port as it is really lovely. Good times then and good time now. Yay!!!
Baldwin is down for a return trip to restock the wine cellar.

To continue a day of joyous merriment with my circle of good close friends, my party of five and I trek onwards to Baldwin Vineyards from Warwick, NY to Pine Bush, NY. This business is literally a vineyard as they do not produce or grow their own grapes to ferment on the premises. The wine tasting bar oddly situates inside of a large clean furnished basement, although there is no cellar for patrons to explore but gather to click their glasses. We came here for the Strawberry, Chocolate and Wine Festival which occurs on select weekends for an inclusive price at $15.00 with valid proof of identification in compliance of New York State legal age law.
Baldwin Vineyards is family owned and resides in New York State's Hudson Valley. There is a small kitchen that conjures brownie, chocolate dipped strawberry, and cheese cake to accompany the tasting included in the inclusive $15.00 price. Two unisex facilities are available. There is live music with a guitarist singing Christian songs as Godspell, 1973 Robin Lamont's "Day By Day" though I wish he would sing "Light Of The World" as my personal preference. After an intensive tasting to my palette my personal choices are: Chardonnay; Blush; Port; Apple, and Strawberries.
The name Baldwin Vineyards reminisce the renowned actor, Alec Baldwin who I personally had the pleasure to occasionally serve him of his presence in my workplace, which he is a very nice, patient and appreciative person. Though bearing no blood relation ties to the renowned actor, Baldwin Vineyards has a quaint scenic pond with two benches and tables for patrons to pass the time in the company of good circle of friends.
Cheers to happiness, good health and SINCERE friends! -

When the rain ruined my plans to go swimming and hiking in the mountains, I suggested we go wine-tasting instead. I've been to many of the vineyards on the Shawangunk wine trail, but I'd never been to this one. My friend highly recommended it and brought me here.
It's small and a little dark, but it's strangely cozy and the little old man who owns it is a total doll. For $5.50 we got eight separate tastings, making it the best priced of all the wine-tastings we attended that day.
My only real complaint is that Baldwin focuses on sweet wines, primarily dessert types. Most of their output is fruit wines or whites, and I'm a red girl. I was a bit disappointed to see only two reds on the list. However, that's a personal preference and I decided to be open minded that day.
The sparkling white was really quite tasty, and I was pleasantly surprised by how much I liked the Joseph's vintage. I normally find fruity wines to be a bit too sweet for my liking, but my friend said I had to try to the strawberry and apple wines. Both were very tasty, and would make great post-dinner aperitifs. -

Featuring their famous Strawberry Wine (Seventeen..the hot July moon... sing it with me folks!), an amazing Chardonnay and a host of other wines, their selection is huge and is worth the cash! Not to mention their Strawberry/Chocolate/Wine Tasting that they offer! A MUST stop on any wine tasting day in the region!
