Create Wine Together This Valentine's Day on Long Island

Skip the crowded restaurant this Valentine's Day on Long Island. At wineUdesign in Hicksville, NY, couples create wine together from crushing grapes to designing custom labels and take home bottles to enjoy all year. This romantic wine making experience brings you closer through hands-on collaboration, expert guidance, and the satisfaction of making something extraordinary as a team. It's a date that doesn't end when you leave - every bottle becomes a toast to your relationship.

A Romantic Experience That Grows Richer Over Time

Most Valentine's dates end after one evening. This couples wine making NY experience unfolds over several months of shared moments. Return together for grape crushing, barrel tastings as your wine ages, and bottling your creation side by side. Like your relationship, the wine you make together grows richer with time. Each session deepens your connection while you learn an ancient craft. And when you finally open bottles months later, every glass reminds you of the day you created something lasting together.

Create Your Own Wine from Grape to Bottle Together

You're not just watching a demonstration - you're doing the work together. Crush fresh grapes by hand. Make blending decisions as a team. Design labels with both your names or a special message. Our expert guides (who learned from their fathers and grandfathers in Italy) support you through every step, but the choices are yours. Select grape varietals from California, Italy, South Africa, or Chile. Perfect your blend to match both your tastes. The result? 240 bottles of wine that represents what you built together.

Perfect for Valentine's Day and Beyond

While this makes an unforgettable unique Valentine's date idea, the experience works beautifully year-round for anniversaries, engagements, date nights, or just because. Wine crushing seasons run September through October and April through May, so you're not limited to February 14th. Book for Valentine's Day and start your sessions in spring. Or give this romantic wine making experience as an anniversary gift. The flexibility means you can celebrate your relationship on your timeline, not just on the calendar's terms.

No Experience Needed - Just Show Up Ready to Connect

Neither of you needs to know anything about winemaking. That's why we're here. Our team guides every couple through the complete process, explaining techniques while keeping things fun and approachable. You'll ask questions, make mistakes, laugh together, and learn something new as a team. This romantic date on Long Island welcomes complete beginners - in fact, discovering the craft together often makes the experience more meaningful. The focus isn't on expertise; it's on creating memories and wine you'll both love.

Custom Labels Tell Your Love Story

Every bottle you create features custom labels you design together. Add both your names, your anniversary date, a meaningful quote, or an inside joke only you two understand. Some couples include the date they met. Others add the coordinates of where they got engaged. The personalization makes each bottle special - and when you share them with friends and family, those labels spark conversations about the day you spent making wine together on Long Island. It's a story you'll love telling.
