Assertive deisel aroma followed by apricot. Notable acidity. Exactly what it should be. #nywine doing a good job.

Overall simple and approachable, citrusy and mildly complex. Certain notes of petrol. Varietal and fruity aromas, palate slightly steely. #fingerlakeswinecountry #riesling

Nice elevated acidity balanced by a steely minerality. Key limes, ripe green apple, hint of white peach, blossoms. Really faint petrol hint. A really charming riesling

Pear, Meyer lemon, petrol, limestone and hints of stone fruit, butterscotch and candied fruit. Great acidity and good minerality.

So much structure and intensity, key lime, sea salt with marmalade

Nice citrus notes—lemon and key lime. Petrol, rubber. Crisp acidity. Really well balanced right now.

1st wine from NY for me. Tennis balls and dried herbs on the nose. The light bodied palate is full of citrus and and bergmont tea. Long, suprisingly layered finish.
