Sakonnet 1995 Samson Brut Sparkling (Southeastern New England)

  1. $25
A full-flavored but light-bodied sparkler that has some toasty elements over lemon-tangerine fruit. The long finish brings some attractive pink grapefruit notes. A very welcome surprise from this Rhode Island winery.  — W.E.  (12/15/2000)

Sakonnet 1999 Chardonnay (Finger Lakes)

  1. $15
Firm and focused, with pretty mineral and herb notes at its center. The wine has good body and is a bit racy on the finish, with a zingy citrus edge. Well integrated and refined.  — J.C.  (7/1/2002)

Sakonnet 1996 Brut Sparkling (Southeastern New England)

  1. $30
An immediate air of salinity says “coastal,” but who would have guessed Rhode Island? Buttercream, bright citrus, toast and stone fruit aromas and flavors complete this balanced blend of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.  — K.F.  (12/1/2002)

Sakonnet 1999 IceWine Vidal Blanc (Southeastern New England)

  1. $25
Pretty and sweet, with citrus and herb notes at the fore. A hint of woodiness shows through, though, followed by apricot and peach flavors.  — J.M.  (12/1/2002)

Sakonnet 2003 Winterwine Vidal Blanc (Southeastern New England)

  1. $25
Apricots and honey on the nose lead this rich but balanced dessert wine. Made with the fragrant Vidal Blanc grape, the wine shows an elegant balance of sweetness and fresh acidity.  — S.K.  (7/1/2007)
