Winemakers Notes
Malbec Rosé
Whole cluster pressed, fermented and aged in stainless steel. Vibrant pink color with bright acidity and flavors of raspberry and beach plums, and a stony minerality.
“The nose is filled with fat juicy raspberries and hints of fresh-cut watermelon. It’s wonderful. The palate is broad yet focused with active natural acidity and a nice round mouthfeel that leaves a creamy finish. I never thought Malbec could be so expressive.”

Syrah Rosé
Two acres are planted at Bedell. Syrah is normally grown in warmer regions than the North Fork, but our cool, maritime climate influences Syrah with a lower alcohol level, a refreshing saline minerality. Whole clusters were loaded into the press by hand and gently pressed to minimize color extraction. Fermented and aged in a small stainless-steel tank. Enjoy this delicious wine with local North Fork produce.
Fields Rosé
A blend of Cab Franc and Syrah fermented with local lavender to subtly enhance the aromatics of this beautiful wine. Truly a one-of-a-kind offering from the North Fork found only at Corey Creek!
62% Cabernet Franc 38% Syrah
11.6% Alcohol by volume
Salt-Air
This airy and refreshing blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Auxerrois is exclusive to Small Batch winne club members. Crisp as a cool sea breeze with just a hint of North Fork minerality, it's begging to be paired with local seafood. New for 2023!
75% Sauvignon Blanc 25% Auxerrois
12.5% Alcohol by volume
Old Vine Rosé
A rosé blend starring 43 year old Gewürztraminer vines. The fruit was hand-picked and gently pressed off its skins into neutral French oak for barrel fermentation. This lends the wine fresh patisserie notes and softens the intense floral character the grape is known for.

Golden Hour
Our first ever orange wine is a delectable treat! Hand-harvested clusters of Pinot Gris were crushed and fermented on the skins just as we do when making red wines. The result is a gorgeous orange color and creamy full body owing to the tannins derived from the grape skins. Definitely a must-try from Corey Creek this vintage!

White Cabernet Franc
Unlike a traditional Cab Franc that is fermented with skins for color extraction; this small batch was gently whole-cluster pressed and fermented and aged in stainless steel with no skin contact. A red wine made like a white wine. Flavors of white peach, eucalyptus, nutmeg, and savory herbs define this dry, aromatic stunner.

Coquillage
Coquillage means seashell in French. This wine is 100% Chardonnay, harvested by hand and fermented with wild yeast in stainless-steel. After the wine finished fermentation, shells were collected from both Peconic Bay and Long Island Sound beaches. They were then cleaned by ‘washing’ them with the wine to preserve flavor and minerality. The shells were gently placed into the tank and floated down to the bottom where they aged with the wine for 3 months. The wine is crisp and clean with subtle hints of the seashore.

Cabernet Franc
This small batch of Cabernet Franc was co-fermented with 10% Viognier for 7 days. During this time it was gently punched down by hand. After pressing it was aged in amphora and used oak barrels for 8 months. Bright ruby color, flavors of cherry and raspberry with floral aromatics.

Petit Verdot
Petit Verdot reveals its true essence in this exceptional offering. Winemaker Marin Brennan used wild yeasts to begin the fermentation in stainless-steel, incorporating pump overs to immerse the ascending grape skins. This meticulous technique elevates the wine's structure, color, and showcases its inherent character. Aged in neutral barrels for a protracted maturation of 21 months. This wine stands as a pure embodiment of Petit Verdot, boasting a profound, rich purple hue and a full bodied mouthfeel.
