Tripoli PattersonTripoli Patterson is a pro surfer. He’s lived in Bali and New Zealand. He puts together fantastic exhibitions for artists he discovers in his travels. His tee-shirt line’s like Christopher Holland’s on acid. New York’s hipster elite love him. So too do older, more established gallery owners. Among the east end’s young wave riders, he is God. And he is only 24.

Christian Wolffer: A Bubbly Man

wolffer estate, sagaponackI’m a total and complete uncouth girl when it comes to wine: make it sweet and white or effervescent. The wines at the Wolffer Estate are markedly not sweet, so when Rachelle and I joined the Plum team for some post-wrap bonding on Wolffer’s lawn, I wasn’t sure what to order. As the other girls waxed rhapsodic over the rose, I scanned the menu. I’d had the rosé before, and while I can tell it’s a good wine (I think), it is, again, not sweet.

And then my eyes alit on the Cuvée brut. Dared I sparkle so early? I did, I decided, and it was delectable, kind of lemony and nutty tasting and very dry. I liked it because I like anything that fizzes, but I’m pretty sure it would please much more discerning palates than mine. Have you all tried it? What is your favorite Wolffer wine?
