RGNY Celebrates The Start Of Harvest Season With Dinner In The Vines Featuring Chef Noah Schwartz

RGNY’s Harvest Season began on August 15 with Dinner in the Vines, an unforgettable evening beneath the stars at the vineyard in Riverhead. Guests were immersed in the enchanting vineyard setting, surrounded by lush vines and candlelight.

The event featured a thoughtfully curated multi-course meal crafted by Chef Noah Schwartz of Noah’s in Greenport, celebrating the flavors of the season. Attendees enjoyed a night of great food, scenic views, and memorable moments as they kicked off the harvest festivities.

As guests arrived, they enjoyed a glass of James Lane Post x RGNY Scielo Summer Rosé and passed canapés including local Oysterpond oysters and poached shrimp raw bar, toasted blinis with smoked salmon and creme fraîche, mini local pulled duck BBQ tacos, watermelon and heirloom tomato, and gazpacho shooters with basil oil.

The first course was a Latham sweetcorn soup with microgreens and spiced popcorn paired with a 2025 RGNY Pinot Gris. For the entree, guests enjoyed a petite filet mignon surf-and-turf with lobster tail, potato puree, sautéed spinach, blistered cherry tomatoes, and red wine reduction, paired with a 2024 RGNY Petit Verdot. 

The meal ended with local peach cobbler for dessert, paired with 2023 RGNY Amphora Skin-Fermented Gewürztraminer.

The series continues in October, in partnership with James Lane Post, with a stomp party on October 4 and a help-us-harvest event on October 24. The season wraps up on November 7 with RGNY’s Día de los Muertos celebration.
