Dewey’s 2022 Debut
New York
60% Riesling from the Finger Lakes, 40% Chardonnay coming from Long Island’s North Fork. Was hoping for some of that sexy oyster shell minerality, came away with Piña colada minerality. The Debut is clean and crystalline, aromatic, and has some weight to it. Most important of all, it’s yummy.
Dewey’s 2022 Brush Cutter
North Fork of Long Island
65% Chardonnay, 35% skin-fermented Muscat. Named for its angles and heady bouquet, and the fact that much of my time since moving to New York has gone to cutting back vegetation. The Brush Cutter is racy, energetic, and best suited to an adventurous palate.
Dewey’s 2023 Light Roast
North Fork of Long Island
100% Merlot. We divvied up the grapes, pressing half as a rosé, the remainder as a red, and in the end blending them back for a crunchy, juicy (yes, chilled) light red expression.
