Summary and Frequenly Asked Questions:
Cutchogue is a picturesque hamlet located on Long Island's North Fork, named for an Algonquin word meaning "principal place." The town is home to some of New York's oldest buildings, originally settled in the mid-17th century. It was a favorite destination for scientist Albert Einstein, whose visits to the region with fellow physicists Leó Szilárd and Edward Teller led to the inception of the Manhattan Project atomic bomb government program. Since the 1970s, the hamlet has been known as a top wine-producing region in the greater New York City area, known for its signature locally-grown Merlot grape varietals.
