Another taught and racy Riesling from Forge Cellars. This time, the grapes are sourced from Les Alliés vineyard, which lies on the east side of Lake Seneca. The vines are planted in shale and gravelly loam, as such, the profile is lean and citrusy, with hints of lemon zest and pear, layered under wet shell and river rock. The use of large oak barrique is evident on the palate, lending depth and texture to tension. It's bracingly acidic and slightly oxidized, straight though to the finish. 0.3% RS 12.5% ABV | Sample

Soft nose of honeysuckle, baked pears, subtle oak and slightly oxidized edge. Macon apple highlights the palate with serious tension on the acid side of things. Tastes like an unfinished wine at this point and a little disjointed. Rest of group was both surprised and disappointed. Drink now.
