Attraction of the Month
 Bordeleau Winery is
located in the heart of Maryland's Eastern Shore, nestled between the
gentle slopes of Wicomico Creek. Their vineyards share the stage with an
abundance of wildlife - bald eagles, great blue herons, fox, deer, geese
and wild turkeys - along with pristine wetlands that help to protect the
Chesapeake Bay.
The name Bordeleau - "the water's edge" - was chosen to reflect not only
the distinctive environment where they hand-harvest the grapes but also
the favorable climate similarities to the world-class Bordeaux region of
France.
This past summer, Bordeleau opened Wicomico County's first licensed winery
and tasting room, thereby achieving a new milestone by presenting its
wines and events to the public at large. Initial response has been very
gratifying. Distribution through local and regional restaurants and retail
outlets is underway, and competitions and festivals are bringing
additional recognition.
The owner and winemaker, Tom Shelton, invites you to come and savor the
unique Bordeleau experience, where their mission is to create their own
world-class wines...a little closer to home.
The winery is also a wonderful location to hold your next special event or
meeting. A meeting room is on premises and the tasting room is also
available before or after your event. The winery has agreements with
several different local restaurants and can help you choose a caterer to
fit your needs.

Festival being held at Pemberton Historical Park on October 18 & 19, 2008. |
