Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
Our Riesling 2023 is a lighter, fresher offering that is easy to enjoy on its own or with food. A bouquet of white flowers and dried herbs float from the glass. On the palate, juicy tropical notes, including pineapple and apricots drizzled with honey. Pair with your next sushi night (sashimi or nigiri), clam boil, or brunch.
Vineyard Notes
The 2023 vintage started off with a hard freeze in May, resulting in widespread shoot damage across the Finger Lakes. Fortunately, most of the region was able to bounce back later in the summer. Disease pressure was alleviated by a dry September, making for a smooth first half of harvest. October had some rain during the first few weeks but finished with cool and sunny days. From a wine chemistry perspective, the 2023 vintage is more typical of a "classic" Finger Lakes vintage-- with both red and white wines showing well. The tannin and color in the red wines are somewhere in the middle of the road-- not as intense as 2022, but much more substantial than 2021. The white wines have slightly elevated acidity and will age quite well.
