Raphael

Raphael produces wines from New York that have drawn assessment from major critics including Wine Enthusiast, Wine Advocate, Wine Spectator, Decanter, and Falstaff. The winery's portfolio centers on two distinct expressions: a Riesling Dessert that captures the grape's capacity for concentration and sweetness, and a Primo Reserve—a Bordeaux-style blend of Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Malbec. A Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon rounds out the core offerings. These wines reflect the winery's engagement with both classic Old World varietals and the particular conditions of New York viticulture, where cool-climate ripening and terroir shape the character of the fruit.
