To continue on my tastings, I tasted the NY Pinot Noir, Merlot and Cab Franc.
The 2005 New York State Pinot Noir. This wine is medium bodied with earthy aromas and notes of strawberry and black cherry. I found it very earthy.
The 2005 New York State Merlot was made from fruit from Long Island. This wine had a nice smooth finish. It had some earthy aromas of plum and berry fruits.
The 2005 New York Cabernet Franc was a blend with 24.5% Merlot. This had aromas of red berry fruits, black raspberry, and spice. I love the spice on the finish. That’s what makes a good Cab Franc.
If you have some time free, take a ride out to Millbrook Winery and let me know what you think.
