Gristina 1998 Andy's Field Merlot (North Fork of Long Island)
- $27
Takes all of the ingredients of Gristina's estate Merlot and "kicks them up a notch"-cherry, plum, coffee and mocha aromas and flavors show good depth, a thick texture and a lingering finish. To be released 5/01.

Gristina 1999 Andy's Field Chardonnay (North Fork of Long Island)
- Online Exclusive
- $40
Strikes a nice balance between the buttered toast and delicate pear and peach fruit. Despite being medium-to-full-bodied, there’s a hard, stony feel to the flavors, which finish long and lemony.

Gristina 2000 Apaucuck Chardonnay (Long Island)
- Best Buy
- $10
Kicks off with pretty toast and peach aromas, followed by a strong lemony core. Moderate body and bright acidity make this zippy wine refreshing and food friendly. Best Buy.

Gristina 1998 Merlot (North Fork of Long Island)
- $20
A smooth, harmonious wine that carries plenty of black cherries and plums upfront, laced with coffee and mocha flavors. Good length on the finish is bolstered by a strong undercurrent of acidity.

Gristina 1998 Cabernet Franc (North Fork of Long Island)
- $22
A Franc that shows off its herbal character in a big way, with aromas of fresh tarragon and basil. Fresh berry flavors provide a juicy counterpoint to the green herbs. A lighter style than many L.I. Cabernet Francs, but a successful one.

Gristina 1999 Chardonnay (North Fork of Long Island)
- $20
This 100% barrel-fermented Chardonnay sees only 20% new oak, so although it has plenty of buttered-pear flavors it finishes fresh, with a hint of citrus. A touch of anise adds complexity to the aromas.

Gristina NV Garnet Red (North Fork of Long Island)
- $15
A light, entry-level red, with fresh berry aromas and a touch of dried herbs. Dry, but with an appealing softness to its texture.

Gristina 1998 Cabernet Sauvignon (North Fork of Long Island)
- $20
A solid effort for North Fork Cabernet, which has a tendency towards inconsistency. This has dark cassis fruit underlined by a weedy, herbal streak and a dried-fruit nuance as well.
