A touch more fruit than the last but not any less mineral acidity.

This site continues to be one of my favorite - such tension and redemption. Acid and floral, peach, nectarine, herbs and quince.

First NY wine! Petrolly nose with citrus/limestone, pretty underripe fruit. Bone dry with razor sharp acidity, a little light and austere and the petrol is pretty strong on the palate. All in all pretty nice.

Nice, but needs to be served very cold. Solid nose, but wine lacked crispness and had medium minus depth. Classic Finger Lakes Riesling flavor, but better vineyards out there for the QPR.

Delicious. The label tasting notes are spot-on. Honeysuckle quince and nectarine!

Full and fruity, tropical and citrus. Nice, long finish. Mostly dry. Very gluggable.

Stunning. Dry, but not bone dry. Great mineral and stone fruit.

My favorite of Red Newt's single vineyard bottlings: lime curd, Granny Smith, honeysuckle & major beeswax. Razor sharp focus. Drinking beautifully now, but I'd love to taste what 5-8 years in cellar might yield.
