Intense color and flavor extraction during the initial fermentation stages led to the development of black berry fruit aromas and rich texture on the palate. Fourteen months of barrel aging in oak cooperage, with periodic racking and gentle aeration, allowed this Merlot to develop its fullest potential character. Stylistically, the Merlot resembles those wines produced in the famous St. Emillion region of France. Showing soft tannins and smoky oak, this Merlot exhibits herbal earthy tones with berry fruit flavors.Its rich color and supple structure fare equally well with red meats, pork, and demi-glace based sauces. Long Island's unique microclimate provides ideal conditions for the production of this noble grape.

This red wine was named for the North Fork's geographical latitude and longitude, the coordinates for great Merlot. The 41/72 Merlot Cuvee was aged mainly in older oak barriques for 12 months and then another 12 months in large oak casks. The somewhat longer than usual pre-bottle aging was to facilitate its accessibility upon release, and to soften and smooth out the wine. This Merlot has soft cherry notes with subtle hints of coffee and chocolate with a smooth but firm tannin structure. An affordable everyday wine, meant to drink young. Perfect with pasta,roast chicken, burgers, and everyone's favorite, pizza.

The 41/72 Chardonnay is partially steel fermented and partially barrel fermented, with the barrel portion 100% Malolactic and aged on the lees for 10 months. The best of both worlds, the barrel portion lends a creaminess, as well as weight and texture on the palate.The stainless steel portion adds bright acidity and crisp apple flavors. The result is a well balanced rich but lively wine. Because of this the wine pairs easily with a broad spectrum of food, especially white fleshed fish, shellfish, poultry, and most anything with a cream sauce. Value oriented, meant for everyday consumption.

Palmer Pinot Blanc is a blend of barrel and stainless steel fermentation. A large portion of the fruit is hand-picked and whole cluster pressed to preserve the delicate, fresh varietal characteristics of this grape. The result is a vibrant, crisp wine with apple and melon flavors and a refreshingly citrus finish. This style of Pinot Blanc is a harmonious match with the bounty of seafood harvested from our local waters.

This Chardonnay was produced with traditional Burgundian methods, utilizing substantial new French oak for barrel fermentation, then keeping the wine in contact with the yeast for the duration of barrel aging. Frequent stirring of these yeast lees, along with malo-lactic fermentation, helps soften the acidity as well as adding flavor and textural complexity. The rich fruit, toast, butterscotch qualities and creaminess of this wine have an affinity with lobster, crab,and butter/cream based sauces,as well as roast chicken and lemon sauces.

In the finest vintages we produce the Reserve Merlot utilizing grapes from our best vineyard blocks. The 2001 Reserve Merlot was produced from grapes harvested from our vineyard in Cutchogue. These vines are over 20 years old and have produced some of the best Merlot on the North Fork. This Merlot was aged for 16 months in new oak barrels.

This wine is a perfect match with shellfish and other seafoods, and also compliments dishes with strong herb seasonings.
