The Old Field
The Old Field produces wines on Long Island, where maritime influence and glacial soils shape the terroir. The winery's Blanc de Blanc, a Chardonnay, demonstrates the region's capacity for structured white wines with mineral precision. Cabernet Franc and Merlot anchor the red portfolio—the former showing the variety's characteristic herbaceous frame, the latter represented by the Commodore Perry bottling. These wines have been assessed by Wine Advocate, Wine Enthusiast, Decanter, and Wine Spectator, reflecting their standing within the broader conversation around New York viticulture. Long Island's cool climate and extended growing season allow for ripe fruit development alongside acidity retention, a balance evident across The Old Field's range.
