Martha Clara 2004 Pinot Grigio (North Fork of Long Island)
- $16
Starts off with modest pear and pineapple scents, then delivers citrus and underripe pear flavors on the light-bodied palate. Tart and crisp on the finish.

Martha Clara 2001 Estate Reserve Merlot (North Fork of Long Island)
- $25
Soft and elegant Merlot aromas of cigarbox, pepper and game waft from the glass, followed by sturdy flavors of cherry and spice. The elements need a little more integration, and the finish cuts off too soon, but overall the wine is good and can be drunk now.

Martha Clara 2003 Estate Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon (North Fork of Long Island)
- Online Exclusive
- $30
There’s black pepper, leather, roasted meat and spice on the palate of this Long Island Cabernet, but the mouthfeel is watery, and overall, the wine lacks depth or roundness.

Martha Clara 2000 Chardonnay (North Fork of Long Island)
- $14

Martha Clara 2008 Chardonnay (North Fork of Long Island)
- Online Exclusive
- $14
Here’s an easy-drinking Chard that provides notes of pear, melon and small white flowers. The acidity is vibrant in the mouth, but the finish falls a bit flat in the end.

Martha Clara NV Red Sweetie Glaciers End Red Table Wine (North Fork of Long Island)
- Online Exclusive
- $13
As the name suggests, this is a sweet red with a touch of candied appeal. The nose offers red berries and a touch of smoke and spice; the palate is fruity with an underpinning of cedar and pepper. Fun but simple.

Martha Clara 1999 Viognier (North Fork of Long Island)
- $15
An absense of the variety's trademark floral and peach aromatics presages the lack of ripeness found on the palate. An angular peppery streak of green fruit runs through the wine from start to finish, despite good palate presence.

Martha Clara 2004 Riesling (North Fork of Long Island)
- Online Exclusive
- $15
After the acetone blows off, the aromas are like sticking your nose in a honey jar. Round and sweet in the mouth, but not full, with honey suckle and animal musk flavors, this lacks acidity to lift it, giving it a heavy feeling.
