Description

Our Vino Bianco is a delicious, symphonic white blend. This wine celebrates both forks of the East End of Long Island and has done so since its first vintage in 2001. Likely the first "white blend" in the region, it has inspired a slew of new blends from other producers creating a vibrant category in which the Long Island region excels. Our 2021 Vino Bianco is made from 38% Chardonnay, 28% Tocai Friulano, 21% Sauvignon Blanc and 13% Pinot Grigio. The wine is alive with aromas and flavors of citrus fruit, white flowers, golden apples, lemon curd, white peaches, pears, spice, chalky minerality and the salty sea. The wine is juicy and texturally satisfying, succulent, complex, long and beguiling. We believe in blending because it creates complex, complete and ultimately delicious wines. This is demonstrated by the versatility of the wine at the table. Able to pair with shellfish and fish dishes as well as feel comfortable with poultry, veal (vitello tonnato) and even pork, our 2021 Vino Bianco offers a wealth of opportunities, tastes and textures. For this wine, all the varieties were harvested and vinified (approximately 70% wild and 30% inoculated) separately, and then blended together. The Sauvignon Blanc, Tocai, Chardonnay and Pinot Grigio were all fermented and raised in stainless steel tanks this vintage. Our 2021 Vino Bianco has benefited from some resting in the bottle and is absolutely delicious now and will drink wonderfully for at least another three to four years. 348 cases produced.
