Jan 17th, 2022Seriously good single-vineyard Riesling from a 1.6-acre plot on the eastern side of Seneca Lake (at 699 ft elevation). A piece of New York history, this site was planted in the early 1970s by none other than Charles Fournier, one of America’s greatest winemakers and a pioneer in the introduction of vinifera grapes in this region. Herbs, dry grass, floral notes on the nose. Dry, vibrant, mineral, very refreshing. Green apple, some citrus, hints of nuts on the palate. Saline. Zesty acidity. Great balance

Jul 31st, 2021Could have sworn this was Chablis. Crisp, cutting acidity with white floral aromas, lemon, super flinty. The traditional #riesling characteristics kind of fade into the background, really cool style of terroir-driven riesling. #flxriesling
