Finger Lakes Rkatsiteli
Finger Lakes, New York, USA
The producer of this lovely wine likens this ancient Georgian variety to sauvignon blanc. While this did have similar aromas of grass and lemon pith, as well as tropical fruit notes on the palate, I found this to be softer, and less tangy, than sauv blanc. Almost tastes like sauv blanc blended with riesling! 100% Rkatsiteli. 9/15/22.

2021 vintage. Not as crisp as last year. Orange peel notes. Interesting wine.
