DRINK LOCAL. Founded in 2016, The Gilded Grape has had a strong focus on local. Born & bred in Brooklyn, our proprietor wanted to add something special to the borough she was raised in. A small boutique shop with a New York state state of mind. The shelves are filled with wines from Finger Lakes, Hudson Valley, & North Fork. Don't know NY wines? It's ok. We can tell you some of our favorites. Craft distilleries from all over the state- artisanal spirits you've been looking for. Don't worry, we have everything else too... But this place is your destination spot for getting hooked on NY. Welcome.
