Vessels of Experience Zine
Pat always creates an accompanying zine for his projects and this latest one documents the exhibition Vessels of Experience, where sculpture,agriculture, vinification and daily chores become one unified practice at Nik Nak's Farm in the Catskill Mountains. McCarthy sources materials directly from the landscape to craft poetic narratives through objects, speaking to the hyper-personal yet universal.

Noiret
Made from grapes Cornell University bred specifically for New York. It’s a glass-aged edition and shows off the wild, rustic character of the grape hybrid with dark cherry and blackberry flavors reminiscent of French Côte du Rhône, but with a distinctive "grapey" taste you only get from a New York hybrid grape.

Chancellor
This wine comes from a French-American hybrid grape which was banned in France back in the mid-1900s—now it only grows in the Finger Lakes. After two months in small oak barrels, you get this dark purple wine with plum and blueberry flavors that drinks like an Italian Merlot.

Noiret (Oak Aged)
A wine of the same Cornell-bred grapes in the Noret but spends two months in oak barrels, creating a softer, more refined version with gentle vanilla undertones smoothing out the wine's natural intensity, while retaining the notes of dark cherry and blackberry.
