A Lesson on Terroir and Merroir Featuring Bedell Cellars, Peeko Oysters, and I & Me Farm

Known for its vast farmlands, award-winning wineries, and pristine seafood, the North Fork of Long Island is one of the most abundant agricultural regions in New York State.

Bedell Cellars, a family-owned winery fermenting with 100% naturally occurring wild yeasts, has perfected the “North Fork style” of winemaking, relying on well-tested techniques that work in harmony with their maritime terroir. Peeko Oysters, a small aquaculture farm based out of Suffolk, New York, harvests their exceptional bivalves in the Little Peconic Bay. I & Me Farm in Orient, New York stewards the land with organic and biodiversity practices.

Together, these growers, vintners, and farmers have partnered to create a tasting experience that brings together the best of land and sea. Enjoy a menu that features the bounty of the North Fork and learn about the sustainable practices and dedication that goes into every sip and bite.

Wine generously donated by Bedell Cellars.
