All prior notes apply! One of the best value, sparkling Riesling in the FLX. Our last 2017 and the nose is just exploding out of the Gabriel Glas! Lovely.

Dec 2nd, 2018Quick starter bottle for Thanksgiving Eve 2018, my favorite pressure carbonated Finger Lakes region Riesling. Prior notes still apply.
(Truth be told, we only found one other producer doing this method when we were on our FLX retreat in October.)

Chilling this a little, notes soon.
Hmm, now this is interesting, a manually carbonated Riesling.
Color is a very light greenish-straw color.
Nose has fresh cut green apple, green apple peel with light steely mineral.
Palate is pleasantly effervescent, not heavy, just perfect. This is a light/dry style of Riesling for certain, green apple with under-ripe peach and low sugar style lemon curd.
I must say, first time trying a carbonated Riesling, fun wine, cool experience, more enjoyable than I was expecting.

On the Lawn at Tanglewood this evening with the Wynton Marsalis Quintet, with very special guest performance by the Ellis Marsalis Quintet. A very exciting show, this will be the second time we've seen father (Ellis) and son (Wynton) together on these grounds.
A carbonated FLX Riesling, just perfect for today, great style, wish more producers would take this chance and do something fun like this with their wine. Please see my prior notes, still applicable.
24hr Update: Bubbles on the decline, but more of a fresh green apple-y Riesling today, not disappointed at all. 👍
