Founded by John & Paul Nunes in 1995, Newport Vineyards is the largest grower of grapes in New England. The winery produces over 30,000 cases of estate-grown wine each year through sustainable farming methods on nearly 100-acres of historically preserved farmland.

The vineyard today boasts a fully farm-to-table and 100% scratch cooking program amongst their two restaurants and full in-house catering department.
