The Smell of the Sea? The Aroma Profile of Long Island Wines
Swirl a glass of Long Island wine. What do you smell? The salt air of the sea? Herbal or floral qualities indigenous to Long Island? Are there similarities across different varietals, white and red? Palmer Vineyards winemaker Miguel Martin leads you through a blind-tasting of five samples of four varietals—sauvignon blanc, chardonnay, merlot and cabernet franc—to see what aromas and flavors you identify in Long Island wines.
