I did my final project on the Vineyards of Long Island. Earlier on this semester I visited 3 vineyards on the Tip of Long Island where many of the New York wineries are located that were recommended to me by a local wine bar owner. At first I didn’t know what to expect never traveling that deep into Long Island before. But as I started to travel the scenery started to change. NYC’s towering skyline began to shrink into a forest of trees and small homes. The most relaxing 2 hour drive I’ve ever taken. Making Wine is a process that starts on the vines and ends in the bottle as you will see in my series of photographs.
