| The Dallemagne family has been producing some of the world's finest wines for generations, starting in the area near Liege, Belgium in the mid 1400's. At the conclusion of World War II the family's facilities were too badly damaged to continue production, and so were sold. Paul Dallemagne, the owner and winemaker, has resurrected the family tradition of fine wines and opened Mountain View Winery in July of 2005. The first year's total production was 95 cases, a small start. Production in 2010 was 400 cases, as the Winery slowly expands.
The winemaker is retired from the Air Force, where he served as a navigator in the 139th Airlift Squadron, flying the LC-130 Hercules the the polar regions of the world. The LC-130 is a version of the venerable Herc that has been permanently modified with skis to allow it to land on ice and snow. Here is a photo of him and some of his wines at McMurdo Station, Antarctica: Mountain View Winery is located at the western edge of the Cambridge Valley 5 miles north of Cambridge, New York. The view from the winery is a sweeping vista of the Green Mountains of Vermont on the other side of the valley. Included in this view is Mount Equinox of Vermont. | | Mountain View Winery is the first licensed New York State Farm Winery in Washington County, New York.
