Pear, apple, lemon curd, peach, honeydew melon and hints of tropical fruit. Good acidity and balance.

Wonderful riesling out of the #fingerlakes. I have no complaints. Perfect balance of acid and rs. Only 10% alcohol. I am really enjoying the wines Red Newt is making, it's hard to believe it's only $13/btl!

Solid #fingerlakeswinecountry #riesling that walks a balanced line between domestic sweet fruit and Alsatian dry. I get white stone fruit, some over ripe pears and that classic petrol bouquet. Finishes with a nice dry edge. Would live to pair some type of food with heat to see how they tango. 😋

Light and refreshing, sweet but not over bearing. Fruity, and not dry. Only at good fine wine stores, $13

I've never enjoyed a Riesling more. I usually tend toward drier whites, so I didn't really expect this to be my style, but it had lingered in the cave a vins for too long, and one day we just cooked and opened it, and it was fantastic. Lots of layers, not sweet, suppose and I agreed it was too notch
