Wine Library TV Has Fun With Long Island Franc
I’ve been talking about Long Island’s cabernet franc wines for a while…even daring to question merlot’s supremacy because of my love affair with franc.
Well, Gary Vaynerchuk over at Wine Library TV loves cab franc too, especially those from the Loire Valley. Late last week though, he looked much closer to home, drinking three Long Island renditions.
I for one am glad to see Gary getting back to basics. He’s toned down the theatrics and is really doing more educational work again with WLTV. And incidentally, for $13, the Pellegrini bottle was a steal. I say was because it sold out on Wine Library not long after the episode ran.
Anyway, watch below…and ignore what Gary said about franc being a focus in lieu of chardonnay or merlot. That’s not true…at least not yet.
