Newport Beach Vineyards And Winery

Newport Beach Vineyards & Winery is a privately owned estate located in Orange County, California, nestled in the Upper Newport Bay. Founded in 1998 by Richard and Marilyn Moriarty, the winery specializes in producing award-winning wines using traditional Bordeaux red wine grapes, including Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Petit Verdot, and Malbec. Their signature varietal is the Meritage, a blend of these five grapes, which has become a local favorite. The vineyard covers about a third of the property, with over 1,200 vines producing up to five tons of high-quality red wine grapes annually. The winery's philosophy is centered around "World Domination through Vinification," and they take pride in hosting special events for groups, offering a unique environment and expert sommeliers. However, it's worth noting that the public tasting room is not open, and all tastings and events are by appointment only. The venue features an underground Wine Cave, making it a popular choice for private events. With its rich history and commitment to traditional winemaking practices, Newport Beach Vineyards & Winery has established itself as one of Orange County's best-kept secrets in the wine industry.
