Casa Larga Business of the Month

Casa Larga Vineyards has been chosen as the March Business of the Month by the Fairport-Perinton Chamber of Commerce. Founders Andy and Ann Colaruotolo shared a vision and a passion for producing good wine that could be shared with friends and family. The winery started as a hobby and then flourished into a business. The first vines were planted in 1974. Just as time marched on from hobby to business, so did the ownership. With the passing of founders Mr. and Mrs. "C," the Colaruotolo children, Andrea C. O'Neil, Mary Jo Telesca, and John Colaruotolo run the business today. Throughout the business, family tradition is enjoyed and furthered. Read more.....
