You know it’s Autumn when Big Apple Wine is released. It is made by my friend, Roman Roth; who is the winemaker for Wölffer Estate Vineyards in Sagaponack, New York. This seasonal specialty wine is made from such aromatic apples such as Fuji, Braeburn, and Jonagold - all from the East End Halsey Family Orchard, which dates back to the 17th century.

Big Apple Wine is a wonderful transition to fall, this seasonal wine is made from a blend of seven different varieties of locally grown apples produced at Wölffer Estate Vineyard in Sagaponack. Outstanding on its own with a light chill, Wölffer Big Apple is also a harvest-ready “Fall Refresher,” a light drink that that makes a great companion to antipasti and other light fare for fall picnics and tailgating.

Chill slightly, BAW pairs perfectly with roasted poultry or even with a pumpkin dessert!
