Item Description

Magnum of Lenz Cabernet Sauvignon 1997 (North Fork of Long Island)

This vintage shows plenty of bright red-fruit flavors of cherry and red currants. Yes, there's a hint of green pepper, but not so much as to be objectionable. It's more than made up for by the lush mouth feel and ease with which this wine goes down.

88 Points Wine Enthusiast

One Magnum of Bedell Musée 2010, Chuck Close Label (North Fork of Long Island)

Musée id Bedell Cellars' ultimate experssion of North Fork terroir. The wine is powerful, with a show-stopping core of ripe fruit and a complex array of flavors and textural nuances. The 2010 vintage is considered one of Long Island's finest and produced deeply extracted reds. Says, Thomas  Matthews of Wine Spectator: "This balanced red delivers expressive flavors on a supple frame. Plum, currant and espresso notes are lively and focused."

91 Points Wine Spectator

Two Magnums of 2010 Martha Clara Cabernet Franc Signed by the Winemaker (North Fork of Long Island)

This Cabernet Franc is a medium bodied red showing notes of roasted coffee bean and cedar, and herbs de Provence. The wine has soft tannins and reveals flavors of dried cherry and cedar. Drink now through 2025.
