One of the Finger Lakes most notable varieties, our semi-dry Riesling is plump with flavors of ripe apricot, pear and golden honey.  A wonderful partner to a myriad of foods, this wine shines with chicken, sausages or spicy Indian cuisine.

Riesling produces aromatic light to medium-bodied wines. They can have exceedingly complex aromas with floral, herbal and spicy aromas combined with honey and fruit.  Our vineyards reap the benefits of lake effect temperature control from Seneca Lake that creates less severe extremes in winter and summer, and buffers against spring and fall frosts. The vines are planted in a shallow layer of topsoil on sloping shale beds. If we had our way with Mother Nature every year, we would ask her to give us the right amount of sun and rain so that we may receive a plethora of Riesling grapes from the vineyards.
