2019 HEART | ARTISTS SERIES
Our 2019 Heart is a symphonic white blend that combines the best of six grape varieties. This is made from 40% Chardonnay (Musque clone), 30% Tocai Friulano, 11% Muscat Ottonel, 9% Pinot Grigio, 8% Sauvignon blanc and 2% Pinot Bianco. If you know our other wines this is something like a love child of the threesome Mosaico, Cuvee Tropical and Sylvanus. Just ponder that. Otherwise, you can imagine the wine as an exotic, wild chardonnay bolstered by aromatic bursts of Muscat aromas, fleshed out by the Pinots, with added verve, freshness and geometry provided by the Sauvignon Blanc and Tocai Friulano. This is a complex and unique white wine full of deliciousness and life. The texture is plump and beguiling with cleansing acidity and a long finish. The aromas and flavors are piercing and range in fruit character from citrus to tree to stone to tropical. The Muscat Ottonel and Musque clone of Chardonnay really promote those exotic, tropical, alluring aromatics. It can be hard to put the glass down.

Philippe Cheng
Philippe Cheng is a fine art based photographer in New York with studios in New York City & Bridgehampton, Long Island. Born and raised in New York City, he was educated at The School of Visual Arts and New York University.
His work is in the Library Collection of The Museum of Modern Art and The Parrish Art Museum, and in many private collections. His most recent book entitled, “Still, The East End Photographs” was published by Jovis Verlag GmbH and distributed by D.A.P. “Still, The East End Photographs,” is a book project that is an evocative and poetic interpretation of a landscape that is constantly deriving its beauty and power from the earth’s palate and ever changing seasons. With texts by E.E. Cummings, Elisabeth Biondi, Jack Lenor Larsen, Edwina Von Gal, & Terrie Sultan.
Currently he is completing work on three long-term book projects:
“Bullets in the Sand,” his Coney Island book project, explores growing up in an inner city neighborhood against the backdrop of an historical neighborhood. These images provide a sense of the complexity of the growing up within the shadows of The Wonder Wheel and the Cyclone. Of a dreamland represented by the beach and the amusement park and the reality of living within the projects which have come to symbolize the harshness of inner city life.
The images in “Requiems,” speak to how Americans deal with the issues and dying in collaboration with the artist, Bastienne Schmidt. Representing a cross cultural exploration into how different ethnic, social, and geographically diverse how Americans deal with the issues of death and dying. They received an George Soros Open Society Institute Grant in support of this project.
The images in “Echo Still,” follow in the tradition of B&W New York street photography. Capturing an impression of something, not always definable but always a feeling.
He is directing his first feature documentary entitled, “On the Cusp.” This documentary film was shot during the historic election of 2008. Illuminated by the words and images of 175 women, and filmed on the Eastern End of Long Island, the film speaks against forced silence, while honoring chosen silence – creating an affirmation that every voice matters and is necessary for true democracy.

Marilee Foster
Marilee Foster grew up on a six-hundred-acre potato farm in Sagaponack, NY. Not planning on becoming a farmer, she went to college and received a liberal arts degree. Foster planned on being an artist, but fate intervened when her family needed her help on the farm during a drought in 1994. She never left. Foster farms potatoes with her brother and father plus her own ten acres of various vegetables to sell at her farm stand. She hasn't forgotten about her art, however. She is also a visual artist and writes a weekly column for the Southampton Press called "Sagaponack Scene" in which she describes life as a farmer.
Marilee is also the author of:
Dirt under My Nails: An American Farmer and Her Changing Land is based on articles Foster wrote for the Southampton Press. In Dirt under My Nails she describes farming life during the different seasons. She also tells about the overdeveloped and over-crowded lands surrounding Sagaponack farmland due to the influx of the rich and their summer retreats. "Her charming essays sparkle with insight and humor, and speak movingly of the enchantment she finds in the world around her, even when it is in danger of being lost forever," concluded a Publishers Weekly contributor.
Foster Farm Legacy
Captain Josiah Foster founded the Foster Farm in 1870. After having retired from the whaling trade and having circumnavigated the globe several times in this capacity, he fell from his own hayloft and soon succumbed to his injuries. He had two sons who took the farm over, and they too had sons that continued, and so on. With the years, so the changes.
Today, siblings, Dean and Marilee, are the 6th generation to work this land. Much of the 150 acres that the Fosters farm has been permanently preserved for agricultural use.
Sagaponack Potato Company, farms 30 acres of vegetables + 200 acres of potatoes and small grains. Known as the foster farm, we have farmed these fields for 6 generations. Marilee Foster specializes in heirloom tomatoes, and farms a full range of seasonal vegetables year round.
Marilee and Dean have also recently founded and run Sagaponack Farm Distillery

Jill Musnicki
Since I can remember, I have always been intrigued with various mediums as an artist. I was one of only 2 people to take advantage of my colleges' offering of a "fine arts major". We were the last graduates of the program. It enabled me to explore and be influenced by all mediums while focusing a little more on painting. I am also heavily influenced by experience and simple observation. Much of my experiences have been recorded in drawings and paintings and of course always photography. Photography has always been a major influence in my paintings. I photograph things to help me see them better. Until recently I used it more as a tool than as an art form.
My mind is constantly working to keep me interested in making art. Sometimes that means manipulating my medium, or style. In the end the changes make sense and seem logical. I tend to stick with the natural world as subject matter because I find it endlessly fascinating. The last change I made felt a bit abrupt but really its a perfect progression. I accidentally discovered hunting cameras for a reason unrelated to my artwork. I needed some low tech surveillance help and found it with these motion activated cameras. Immediately I decided I must use this medium in my artwork. I started a learning process that was quite thrilling.
The next chapter in my art making career is quite a learning process. Now I am bringing elements of film into the process, animating my 1000's of photographs to tell a story. The story is of what happens when we aren't looking. Where I live there is a very diverse cross section of the human population. Very poor-very rich. People tend to see the wealth and nothing else, not even nature. In one short film, "The Drain Ditch" I have recorded a parade of wildlife from foxes to maggots about 500 yards from the most expensive property around. Do they know? do they care? What matters is I do and I am very pleased with the end result in my film clips. The learning process is taking me into the world of creative editing of these digital images.
In the end I know I will always go back and forth between all of my favorite mediums and of course add more to my repertoire.
