Mark & Olivia with Isla, Luca and baby Indy.
Mark and Olivia
A husband and wife team; a designer and a wine guy; add three kids and you have The Cellar d'Or. Mark, the brain behind the bottles of hand selected wine and cider- a surfer, raised in the suburbs just north of Manhattan and on Montauk's Ditch Plains; with his extensive wine knowledge from years in the wine business and his laid-back personality, he is the body and soul of the shop. Olivia, a locally grown Cornell alum with a masters in Landscape Architecture, she married into the wine world and dove right in. Upon starting a family, she realized she wanted her kiddos to have the same type of childhood she did; one full of pulling ripe fruit straight from the vines, digging in the dirt, and knowing your neighbors. So she persuaded her ocean-loving husband and returned to her roots, setting up shop in Ithaca. Together, they decided to combine all of their passions by starting up a retail wine boutique. The Cellar d’Or reflects their love for design, wine, and relaxation; with no stuffy wine talk because drinking and learning about wine shouldn't be intimidating. You can expect to find small-production, terroir-driven wines and ciders that represent some of the greatest growers and winemakers from around the world. The selections make for a comprehensive array of indulgent or affordable wines and ciders that will please anyone who walks through the door.
