For over 35 years, Wölffer Estate Vineyard has been known as one of the finest producers on the East Coast and a center for innovation and hospitality. We are committed to producing premium, distinctive wines, ciders and spirits through a dedication to quality, penchant for style and celebration of place.
Wölffer Estate was founded in 1988 by Christian Wölffer, a man with great creative vision and a huge passion for life. The estate today is owned and operated by his children, Marc and Joey Wölffer and Winemaker/Partner Roman Roth. What started in 1988 with just 14 acres has turned into one of the most breathtaking vineyards and horse farm with 175 acres in the heart of the Hamptons. This includes the acclaimed 55 acre sustainably farmed vineyard located in Sagaponack, NY. We also own 28 acres on the North Fork of Long Island, 200 acres in Mendoza, Argentina and 2.5 acres in Mallorca, Spain. Finally, we partner with carefully selected growers on 338 acres on the North Fork of Long Island as well as 1,750 acres in Côtes de Provence, France.
Our unique combination of Bridgehampton loam soil and breezes from the Atlantic Ocean, located 2.6 miles from the estate, provide maritime conditions perfect for achieving the balance of ripeness and acidity that has come to define Wölffer’s signature style: food friendly, elegant and built for longevity. Our dry ciders and gin have extended Wölffer quality into new categories, exemplifying our drive for innovation and excellence. WÖLFFER SUMMER IN A BOTTLE COLLECTION
Inspired by the overwhelming love and demand for our Summer in a bottle Long Island Sauvignon Blanc, we felt emboldened to expand our offerings with a special expression from France’s iconic Loire Valley. As part of our commitment to sustainability and thoughtful diversification, we embarked on a research trip to this region. We were immediately captivated by the vibrant terroir-driven wines of the Touraine AOP.
Our goal is to create balanced food-friendly wines with modest alcohol levels, much like our Long Island selections. We are proud to introduce this special Sauvignon Blanc to our portfolio......
TASTING NOTES.......
Light yellow with a lovely green hue in color. The wine is beautifully aromatic, rich in thiols displaying fresh classic Sauvignon Blanc notes with hints of gooseberry, lime and elderberries. The wine is well balanced with fine ripeness and vibrant freshness and not grassy. Wonderful fruit, great acidity and good structure give way to a elegant long lees finish. It is a fun yet serious wine with amazing minerality and lovely fine hints of grapes skin adding character and making it a versatile food companion and fun to sip on its own.
