Macari 2000 Essencia White (North Fork of Long Island)
- $35
Quite honey-like, with a strong apricot component. Lush, rich and velvety on the palate. The wine is intense and focused, and long on the finish.

Macari 2010 Riesling (Finger Lakes)
- $26
Only their second vintage of Finger Lakes Riesling, Long Island’s Macari Vineyards makes quite a splash with this beautifully honeyed yet dry and fruitful wine. Richly textured with notes of yellow freesia and preserved peach, it finishes elegantly on a subtly astringent black tea note.

Macari 1998 Merlot (North Fork of Long Island)
- $24
This top-notch effort is toasty from its stay in French oak, but has the rich depth of fruit to retain its balance. Although tight right now, black cherry and espresso flavors are tinged with dried herbs. The finish is tart and lingering, and slightly tannic. Hold for two or three years, then drink over the next five or so.

Macari 2008 Cabernet Franc (North Fork of Long Island)
- $35
Macari’s supple, vanilla-scented Cab Franc is upfront and approachable in its sour cherry fruitfulness, yet boasts some complexity with layers of ripe, brambly wood, dust and dark floral notes. Finishes clean with lively acidity and a coating of grippy, yet fine-grained tannins.

Macari 2000 Alexandra Red (North Fork of Long Island)
- Online Exclusive
- $65
Starts with some scents of asphalt and treebark, then clears up to reveal ripe black cherry aromas. This Merlot-dominated blend (69%) is firmly built but not hard, with notes of tobacco and earth that add welcome complexity. Finishes with good length and crisp acidity.

Macari 1997 Bergen Road Red (North Fork of Long Island)
- $32
A blend of 55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot, 16% Cabernet Franc and 4% Malbec, this top-end offering from Macari boasts bold aromas of weedy cassis tempered with toast and chocolate. Will be considered overly green by some, pleasantly herbal by others, but no one will deny its lush mouthfeel and appealingly peppery finish.

Macari 2007 No 1 Sauvignon Blanc (North Fork of Long Island)
- $27
The Macari No 1 offers an aromatic nose of grapefruit and tropical fruit, followed by crisp citrus and mineral flavors. The wine is balanced and refreshing, but has complexity. Pair with Thai or Indian dishes.

Macari 2007 Rosé (North Fork of Long Island)
- $15
Strawberry cream on the nose and a subtle touch of lemon blended in with strawberry flavors gives this rosé a pretty balance of sweet and crisp. Fun, but with substance, it could be paired with everything from a light seafood salad to a heartier poultry dish.
