A fireplace bar room styled like 1920s New York, from the people behind Rose Hill and Croteaux.
The old Sherwood House on Main Road, reopened in June 2024 by the family behind Rose Hill and Croteaux. A fireplace bar room, a courtyard, two $34 flights, and pigs in a blanket or tots with caviar on the side. No reservations, open daily, and no table seats more than eight.
Fresh whites and Provençal-style rosé alongside Merlot-led reds, poured in a room styled after 1920s New York
No reservations; first-come tables. Open daily 12–7. Two five-wine flights at $34: Main (sparkling, whites, rosé) and Mill (rosé and reds). Glasses $15–20, bottles $34–65. Eight is the largest party, and a group that size should expect a wait.
Rumor, a light unoaked Cabernet Franc; Trinity reserve Merlot blend; Poppy, a méthode champenoise sparkling rosé; 2023 Bicoastal, Napa Cabernet Sauvignon blended with North Fork Merlot (75 cases)
In the glass. From the vineyard at Main Road and Mill Lane in Mattituck: Sauvignon Blanc (Daisy), Albariño, Chardonnay, rosé (Rosie), Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Malbec
Small plates and boards: pigs in a blanket, tater tots (with Osetra caviar for $90), meatballs, baked brie, cheese and charcuterie ($36). Grilled cheese flights on fall Friday nights.
Courtyard in warm months; a semi-private sunroom; fireplace bar room inside in winter
Music. Live music Friday nights 5–7
Some maps still show Sherwood House Vineyards at this address. Parties cap at eight. The vineyard is in Mattituck; Jamesport is the tasting room only.
Getting here
A black-car SUV with a driver, door to door. Ask for a price and our black-car partner will come back to you — which also settles the one problem a tasting day cannot solve on its own, that somebody has to stay sober to drive.
