The wines of New York land in Brussels: a brief overview and tasting


While you may be familiar with Californian wines, the same is unlikely to be true for New York wines. Overview and tasting.

No, rest assured, Central Park has not been turned into a vineyard in the heart of the Big Apple. This is of course not New York City, but the State of New York, which extends from Manhattan to the Canadian border.

Its area is equal to one third of that of France. With more than 15,000 hectares of vines and 471 producers, it is also the third-largest wine-growing state in the United States. We are of course far from the 200,000 hectares of vineyards of California (which, if it were a country, would be the 4th largest producer in the world), but the state has seven major wine-growing areas with a climate tempered by the presence of large deep lakes which almost never freeze and are conducive to the proper development of the vine cycle.
