McGregor Vineyards
Semi-Dry Riesling
Nose has faint petrol, decaying granite, honey (light), washed lemon peel, lime (light) and under-ripe nectarine.
Palate has grapefruit peel, peach, dried apricot, yellow apple flesh, lemon flesh with medium acidity.
A nice pairing to a spicy/smokey marinade for sous vide chicken breasts.

Surprisingly youthful! RS subsided and it had lots of "petrol" @lukewohlers

Sep 15th, 2021I recently tried this semi-dry Riesling from the Finger Lakes at a friend's place (who had recently visited the winery). I liked it so much I had a bottle shipped to me directly from the winery. Crisp apple, lemon, and even somewhat floral on the nose; nice acidity on the palette. This is the best Riesling I've tried from the US.

Jan 7th, 2017Textbook Riesling nose. Rubbery and bright. "Semi-dry" is misleading, because if blindfolded I'd call it dry. Crazy acidity, with a tangerine-like fruit. Delicious.
