David Kohl is “In a NY State of Mind” , as he recalls his experiences with Dr. Dan Damianos, the pioneering founder of Pindar Vineyards on Long Island’s North Fork. Pindar Vineyards was established in 1980 just as Long Island was launching its status as a wine region. At that time, Long Island marketed itself as a region reflective of Bordeaux’s unique growing conditions with proximity to the Atlantic’s maritime climate. Almost 45 years later, Pindar Vineyards’ Cabernet Franc selection is a worthy testament to Dr. Dan’s legacy. #longislandwines #pindarvineyard #northforkwines #winepioneers #cabernetfranc
