DETAILS: Join Cellardoor Winery for "A Taste of Maine Terroir" in their Portland tasting room during Portland Wine Week. Sample the preset flight and experience Maine-grown and crafted wines. For nearly twenty years, the Cellardoor team, spearheaded by Winemakers Aaron and CC Peet, has pioneered the cultivation of cold-hardy grape varieties for Maine's distinctive maritime climate. The challenge of growing grapes in Maine is also what makes Cellardoor's vineyard unique. They believe the spirit of meeting those challenges, and the unique environment and climate of Maine, is present in every sip.
Cellardoor Winery's winemaking facility and vineyard is located in Lincolnville, Maine. Each wine is made using fruit from their Estate Vineyard and from premier appellations in Washington, California, and New York states. From the 5.5 acre estate vineyard, Cellardoor grows Marquette, Frontenac blanc, and Frontenac gris grapes, developed by the University of Minnesota viticulture programs in the 1980s and 1990s; as well as L'Acadie blanc grapes, developed in Ontario, Canada in the 1950s.
