Built on a restored Hudson Valley farm, Stoutridge makes natural wines and small-batch spirits from New York ingredients, handling the work from fruit or grain to glass on-site. Founded by Steve Osborn and Kim Wagner in 2000, the Marlboro winery opened in 2006 and its distillery followed in 2017. Stoutridge is one of only eight U.S. distilleries that malts its own grain and the only one the company identifies as having a traditional Scottish-style kilning floor.
