Onabay Vineyards Great Blue Heron Merlot Red Long Island Wine 750 mL

“Merlot is blended with small amounts of Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, and Cot. Part of an historic 200 acre farm on Peconic Bay, Onabay Vineyard’s 19 acres are dedicated to growing the highest quality Chardonnay, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, and Cot grapes. Onabay’s viticulture and winemaking team is led by Bruce Schneider, considered by many to be the pioneer of Cabernet Franc on the North Fork of Long Island. The North Fork’s climate moderating waters and well drained soils of sandy loam, gravel, and clay provide exceptional conditions for producing fresh, balanced wines with minerality. Onabay’s goal is to achieve a pure expression of these conditions in its wines.” -The Winery
