2012 Vintage. Bell pepper, black cherry, açaí on the nose. The bell pepper stretches to the soft palate with some good tannins. Open again in 2020.

1999. For a wine this old it had remarkable character and body. Not aged in a bad way at all, just nice maturity. A nice find in the dusty stacks. Rating is for the overall quality of an old wine from NY which was way better than anticipated. Wish I had more.

Aged (2000) New York State Chardonnay. Funky smell and initial taste, buttery finish and deep golden color in the glass.
