East Shore Vineyard is an 11-acre estate on the shores of Lake Champlain in Grand Isle, VT, with over 8,250 vines benefiting from a unique microclimate similar to Northern Europe. Founded by Bob and Linda Livingstone in 2000, they started selling their own wines in 2008 after initially selling grapes, producing varieties like Traminette and Cabernet Franc from local and Finger Lakes grapes. Their early Traminette won double gold at the 2009 Tasters Guild International Wine Judging.
