Brooklyn Oenology
Brooklyn Oenology is headquartered on the edge of the Williamsburg and Greenpoint neighborhoods of Brooklyn and founded in the spirit of Brooklyn’s artisanal resurgence. Wines are crafted by Alie Shaper at a host winery on the North Fork of Long Island and each bottle features artwork from a local Brooklyn artist. All labels peel back for safe-keeping. Wines range from Chardonnay and Viognier to Merlot and Bordeaux-style red blends.

Profile of Alie Shaper
Social Club White, Chardonnay
The civilized New York City cocktail party Chardonnay; loads of fruit–ripe mango and pear plus honeysuckle and pineapple; lush texture; medium bodied, just a touch of oak [year 2007]
Chardonnay Oaked
An East Coast Chard for the California Chard drinker; rich and opulent with pineapple, orange blossom and green apple fruit laced with smoky oak, cinnamon and nutmeg; think of it as Burgundy meets New World; lush texture, medium bodied [year 2007]
Viognier
A very rare bottling from Long Island–only eight acres of Viognier exist; aromatic with notes of honeysuckle, honeydew melon, peach and lime zest; smooth and luscious texture, medium bodied [year 2007]
