The story behind Once
Pinot Noir is a thin skinned red grape that makes lighter, aromatic wines: red cherry, cranberry, a little earth, soft tannin. It drinks well young and pairs with almost anything off the grill or out of the pan. Cool climate regions do it best, and the style stays bright rather than heavy.
We stock Once Pinot Noir in Commack in very small quantity, one or two bottles at a time. It is a straightforward, easy drinking example of the grape, and the Once Chardonnay sits beside it on the shelf.
