Wölffer 1997 Brut Sparkling (The Hamptons, Long Island)

  • Editors' Choice
  1. $27
Crisp, firm and packed with intensity. The wine serves up lots of hazelnut, toast, spice, citrus, apple, melon, pear, honeysuckle and herb flavors. Creamy and rich on the finish, with a bright, refreshing edge.  — J.M.  (12/1/2002)

Channing Daughters 2010 Sylvanus White (The Hamptons, Long Island)

  1. $24
A true field blend of Muscat, Pinot Grigio and Pinot Bianco, the Sylvanus is a profoundly aromatic, yet remarkably composed white wine. It’s exuberant on the nose with lush flowers, tropical fruit and a whiff of exotic spice. The palate is dry, but lusciously concentrated with notes of orange peel and waxy flower that finish with a touch of saline and oyster shell.  — A.I.  (9/1/2012)

Wölffer 1998 Estate Selection Merlot (The Hamptons, Long Island)

  1. $30
Elegant nose of sandalwood and cedar. Black cherries come on strong and carry through to the finish. A very smooth and polished wine; finishes on an expansive note with fine tannins.  — J.C.  (4/1/2001)

Wölffer 1998 Estate Selection Chardonnay (The Hamptons, Long Island)

  1. $27
Nutty aromas reminiscent of cashews lead the way, followed up on the palate by more roasted nuts, white peaches and nectarines. Picks up some elegant citrus notes on the long finish. Based on a recent tasting of the 1997 Estate Selection (rated 90), this should improve over the next six months to a year.  — J.C.  (4/1/2001)

Wölffer 1998 Cabernet Franc (The Hamptons, Long Island)

  1. $25
Aromas of tobacco, dried flowers and earth segue into fairly rich dark-fruit flavors of black cherry and plum. Very velvety on the palate, with cedar notes on the finish. Drink now.  — J.C.  (4/1/2001)

Wölffer 2000 Late Harvest Chardonnay (The Hamptons, Long Island)

  1. $35
A syrupy sweet dessert wine that serves up gobs of apricot and peach flavors. But searingly bright lemon-like acidity, reminiscent of eiswein, balances the richness and leaves the palate fresh.  — J.M.  (7/1/2002)

Wölffer 1999 Estate Selection Merlot (The Hamptons, Long Island)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $33
Smooth textured, with soft but firm tannins and moderate acidity. The wine serves up black currant, tea, cola, sage, toast and citrus flavors. The feel turns a bit powdery on the end, finishing clean and fresh.  — J.M.  (1/1/2003)

Channing Daughters 2006 Tocai Friulano (The Hamptons, Long Island)

  1. $24
This is the only Long Island version of this white grape variety from northeastern Italy, but perhaps there should be more. Fermented in a mix of stainless steel and used wood, there's a touch of custardy richness and some dried-spice notes, but the emphasis is on clean, crisp melon, pineapple and citrus fruit.
