Two Long Island wineries have new websites, and I just wanted to point them out.
First is Scarola Vineyards, which is a producers you may or may not even know about. I did a piece that mentioned them for Hamptons.com and for Edible East End. The wines are made by owner Frank Scarola at Wolffer Estate under the watchful eye of Roman Roth. My favorite of Frank's wines is his chardonnay.
Waters Crest Winery has also (finally) revamped its website. I know that co-owner Jim Waters had quite a battle getting it completed (because some designers/developers didn't do him right).
UPDATE: Sean's comment is correct, Lieb Family Cellars has also updated its website.
I'd love to offer a full review of each site, but I caught a lot of flack for picking apart Channing Daughters Winery's new site a while back. Both of these sites are vast improvements and seem pretty solid overall. If anyone is interested in my full thoughts, shoot me an email and maybe I'll take the time to look at them more closely.





The available website grants have started to make their mark in the Finger Lakes as well. Sites that were sufficient at best now have nice graphics and appropriate menus and features. I've been very impressed.
Hopefully, these wineries have designed sites that are easy to update continually in order to stay fresh and current. A pretty website is nice, but a functional website with relevant information is what is important.

Lieb's website has been revamped as well.
