It is my pleasure and privilege to introduce the wines of Frank Puzio, a well-known eye-care practitioner here on Cape Cod. Along with Marty, Harney's manager, I recently visited his state-of-the-art facility near Harwich center, where he crushes the grapes (from vineyards that are adjacent to the Napa County line in California), ferments, nurtures, and bottles on-site. Marty and I tasted his five wines: Cabernet Sauvignon, Zinfandel, Sauvignon Blanc, Cranberry-Raisin, Cranberry-Raisin-Sauvignon Blanc, each one of them producing a smile of satisfaction, an ah!, and a yes! I will be introducing all of these wines in this column in the near future. This Sauvignon Blanc is crisp and very refreshing with aromas and flavors of grapefruit and guava; it is well-balanced, a harmonious whole with no one element dominating, with a lengthy finish. At present time, the Sauvignon Blanc, the Cabernet (75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Merlot, 10% Malbec), and the Zinfandel (75% Primitivo Zinfandel, 25% Petite Syrah) are available for purchase. Thank you, Frank, for making your wonderful wines available here at Harney's.
