One of my top Finger Lakes Riesling’s!

Nice balance of sweetness and tartness. Paired well with shrimp cocktail and cheese.

Could use a little more “umph”, but was very elegant nonetheless. — 4 months ago

Quick afternoon bottle(s) with friends.

Prior notes apply, but this was a much better bottle than our last one. — 5 months ago

Truly the star of the entire day. I legit got tears in my eyes because this Riesling was so beautiful. Bruised yellow apple, singed lemon peel, ginger, wilting jasmine, thyme, petrol, and a tiny bit of peach are woven together by juicy acidity and a lush mouthfeel. Aromatic, mineral, complex, and balanced. I got a bottle to bring home, obviously. — 5 months ago

On this Sunday night I have opened the 2017 Hermann J. Wiemer Cabernet Franc from Seneca Lake of the Finger Lakes in New York.

On the nose I get the red fruits of strawberry, raspberry sauce, cherry, roasted jalapeño, herbs, a vegetable note, smoaky oak and graphite.

On the palate there is cherry, raspberry, red currant, green bell pepper, mint, spice, herbs and minerality.

This wine is full bodied with medium + acidity and medium + sandy grippy tannins that leads into a long red fruit finish. I wish everyone a wonderful week ahead and a safe and prosperous one. Nostrovia! 🍷🍷🍷🍷 — 4 months ago

Fresh, bright Chardonnay from one of the oldest vineyards in the Finger Lakes, an 8-acre plot on the Eastern slopes of Seneca Lake planted in 1974 and recently acquired by Hermann J. Wiemer, the region’s top Riesling producer. Amazing find! — a month ago

Got directly from their library cellar. Strong pear and honey nose. 34.5% rs by weight. Mouth coating sweetness balanced by mature acidity. Very pure fruity wine on the palate, yet still have crashed stone-like minerality. Beautiful treat. — 4 months ago

As I said, I hate Gewurz but I just can’t deny that this is a good wine. With 13 years of age, it becomes even better. Like kind of insanely good. I don’t even know myself anymore. — 5 months ago
