Winery - Paumanok
* Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Dark red, with mushroom, red berry, earth and green bean aromas. Fairly light, and with high acidity, the wine shows earthy red fruit, blueberry and rhubarb along with a good dose of oak.

Paumanok’s Bordeaux blend, a 53-47 blend of Merlot and Cabernet, is a serious, structured wine that needs time or a couple of years in the cellar to open up. Fairly ripe for a Long Island red, it shows cherry and red berry fruit wrapped in a chocolaty palate with good oak spice. The bouquet is closed, although lemon and cranberry show though. But the wine finishes with good length and flavors of black pepper and pencil shavings. Drink 2008–2012.

The aromas feature a sweet blend of honeydew and cantaloupe, with some decidedly floral notes. Round and sweet in the mouth, and marked by a slightly bitter grapefruit-pith note that persists on the finish.

Wood plays a leading role in this wine, offering brown spice and pickle barrel aromas as well as vanilla, tobacco and spice flavors. In between there are aromas of glove leather and flavors of sweet red fruit that pick up intensity toward the finish. Medium-bodied, with solid tannins, the wine nevertheless comes across as bulky and without the acidity many Long Island wines have.
