My experience in a vineyard was incredible amazing. I decided to go out the city for this assignment, I went to a vineyard in North Fork called Shinn Estate Vineyard which is a family owned winery and farmhouse. I enjoy the trip going to this place in Long Island because was a different environment from everyday life in the city which makes me relax for a while.
When I arrived to Shinn Estate Vineyard I was received for three ladies very polite, one of them gave me an introduction of who they are. Then the girl gave me a tour around the wine vine plants; unfortunately, at this time there’s not grapes but I could see the leaves coming out, take a close look to the root, spur and cane of the plants. According to the lady, in September they will be seen grapes.
After seen the vine, I visited the grounded room where they blend the different types of grapes such as, Merlot, Cab Franc, Cab Sauv, petit verdot and others. Finally, I had a wine taste of their red and white wines very affordable. where Rose hill Rose is the most popular wine in this vineyard. After I taste it all, I prefer the 2016 Mojo which is a thank fermented cabernet franc wine.
In fact, I had a very good experience exploring the Shinn Estate Vineyard and tasting their wine. I also recommended to anyone who like to have a vineyard experience or want a getaway day from the city to visit this place.
