The wine region of Long Island
New York AVA on Long Island, maritime climate moderated by the Atlantic, well-drained sandy soils and moraines. Only New York region focused on vinifera (warm enough for Bordeaux varieties). Merlot signature red king (~30%): supple and elegant with plum, red cherry, blackberry, herbs and iodine touch, fine tannins and fresh palate — cool-climate finesse. Peppery Cabernet Franc (bell pepper, raspberry), firm Cabernet Sauvignon.
The wine region of New York
America's 3rd wine state by volume, striking diversity. Finger Lakes the signature: cool-climate Riesling, dry to off-dry, mineral and lively with notes of lime, apple, evolving petrol and white flowers — a US benchmark. Warmer Long Island for peppery Cabernet Franc and supple Merlot. Hudson Valley (Seyval, Vidal).
The word of the wine: Vinification of sweet wines
Moelleux and liquoreux wines are characterized by the presence of residual sugars (natural sugar of the grape), not transformed into alcohol under the effect of yeasts. The fermentation is stopped by cold and by the addition of sulphur dioxide (sulphur).
