Lieb Cellars is an 84-acre sustainably farmed vineyard located on the North Fork of Long Island, 80 miles east of New York City. Lieb was founded in 1992 and debuted their first line of reserve wines in 1999 under the direction of Australian-born winemaker Russell Hearn, with the Pinot Blanc and the Blanc de Blancs sparkling wine quickly gaining national recognition. The next year, they opened their first tasting room on the North Fork of Long Island in Mattituck, NY. As wineries do when they become more popular, Lieb Cellars began to expand production, and, in 2004, introduced the Bridge Lane series: lighter, fruitier “every day” wines at more affordable prices. Today, we will highlight these whites and rosé, a perfect way to wind down the summer. (As my kids will tell you, only 12 days left until school.)
Mike Cook, Lieb Cellars Director of Wholesale will be here to discuss the winery and everything Long Island wine.
