My third time having this wine and the best showing yet. This wine is full of rich, brambly fruits but has such a razor-like acidity to keep things in balance. Superb.

New year, new wine (no. 2): Italian grapes in North Fork, LI. Dark, brambly fruit, intensely flavored, floral and earthy undertones, lots of structure. Last vintage ever, though, as the winemaker’s calling it quits after a zoning fight (the region is in full backlash against encroaching urbanity, which the proliferating wineries have come to represent; Suffolk Co was - still is? - Trump country. I digress...) It’s great, experimental wine for an often cautious region. Stock up while it’s still around.

Jan 7th, 2018Inky and medium bodied but never too heavy or tannic. Just silky smooth and a great send off red from NY.
