The wine region of North Fork of Long Island
Maritime New York AVA between Long Island Sound and the Atlantic: signature Merlot as king red - supple and fruity with notes of black cherry, plum, blackberry, leather and a fresh-herb touch, round tannins and an elegant finish (maritime Bordeaux climate). Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon in structuring support. Fresh Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc in whites (citrus, apple, flowers). AVA (1986), ~2,000 ac, sandy-gravel soils from glacial moraines, ocean breezes preserving acidity.
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: Alcoholic fermentation
Transformation of sugars into alcohol under the effect of yeast. These yeasts exist in their natural state in the vineyards and in the cellars. Artificial seeding with selected yeasts is however very often practiced.
