A reason for the closure wasn't announced. But, the last time I was there, over the summer, I heard rumors owners were trying to sell the property.

A quick Google search also proved the rumor to be true.

"Tremendous opportunity to own a live music venue and a functioning winery all on 32 acres and just minutes from Woodbury Common & I-87. Palaia Winery produces and bottles multiple wine varieties year-round. The winery, located in the barn, is a turnkey facility and the sale includes the name, "Palaia," all equipment & current accounts to start production," realtors state in the listing.
