Value: $450

Atlantic breezes cool Channing Daughters, vineyards creating a climate hospitable to a wide array of fascinating grape varieties. Located on 28 acres in Bridgehampton, Channing Daughters grow and create wines from over two dozen varieties

From the careful culture of vines to the hand-picking of ALL grapes, gentle whole cluster-pressing of white fruit, stomping by foot with punch-down by hand of red grapes, and gravity bottling, Channing Daughters methods remain traditional and artisanal. Wine is grown by hand at Channing Daughters.

Small and unique vineyard lots of grapes are fermented and bottled separately, bearing a Vineyard Designation and Appellation of Origin. Channing Daughters is proud to produce wines bearing all three Long Island AVA's. The North Fork of Long Island, The Hamptons, and Long Island are all utilized. Whether it is a varietal Sauvignon Blanc from the Mudd Vineyard on the North Fork, Blaufrankisch from our Sylvanus Vineyard on Channing Daughters Estate in Bridgehampton or a blend of varieties and vineyards like Vino Bianco, which bears a Long Island AVA. Channing Daughters believe in celebrating the place, vineyards and region which produce the wine. Channing Daughters is grateful to be working with mature vineyards. Their own Sculpture Garden Vineyard was planted in 1982 and the Mudd Vineyard on the North Fork (one of our most prized sources) was planted between 1975 and 1983.

ARTISANAL EXPERIMENTATION

Channing Daughters aims to push the boundaries of what is possible in our vineyards, our cellar and our region. Currently they are producing about fourteen thousand cases of wine a year spread across nearly three dozen different bottling's. Channing Daughters strongly believes there are different foods, occasions, people, seasons and moods that demand different flavors, smells, textures and styles of wine. To this end they create single vineyard varietal wines and blended wines, wines made with indigenous, wild yeast as well as selected yeast, and occasionally a blend of both. Some wines are filtered and fined, some are not. Stainless steel tanks and barrels as well as French, Slovenian, American and Hungarian oak barrels are used in various sizes, formats, percentages and ages. Channing Daughters will co-ferment white and red fruit. They enjoy fermenting some white wines on their skins. The goal? Deliciousness. Everything is done by hand in small batches with lots of love and attention in order to fulfill thier commitment to quality wine in the bottle.
