Mosaico is a celebrated white field blend from Channing Daughters, crafted as an artistic representation of the estate's diverse vineyards in Bridgehampton on Long Island's South Fork. Inspired by the field blends of Friuli and the field-blend traditions of the Old World, the winemaking team co-ferments a complex tapestry of white grape varieties. The grapes are grown on unique Bridgehampton silt loam soils, heavily influenced by the maritime breezes of the Atlantic Ocean and the Peconic Bay. This wine is fermented using wild yeasts and aged in a combination of stainless steel and neutral French oak barrels to preserve its vibrant aromatics and textured mouthfeel. The name 'Mosaico' pays homage to the intricate, artistic blending process, resulting in a wine that is greater than the sum of its parts and deeply reflective of the East End's maritime terroir.
