Keuka Spring Rieslings rated 91 and 90 points in April 2022 issue of Wine Enthusiast Magazine
Nothing tastes better on a warm day than a refresing glass of chilled white wine!
Finger Lakes Rieslings are up to the task, and ours come highly recommended by Wine Enthusiast Magazine. Our 2020 Humphreys Vineyard Riesling and 2020 Classic Riesling received 91 and 90 point ratings, respectively, in the April 2022 issue.
Humphreys Vineyard Riesling is described as follows,
"There's depth and intensity to the aromas of ripe apple, peach, and lemon tea on the nose. The palate shows a gentle, rounded texture yet still maintains tension and grip, with pithy lemon lifting it all up while juicy orchard-fruit flavors linger on the finish."-AP
The description of our Classic Riesling reads,
"This well-balanced sweeter style of Riesling delivers luscious flavors of peach and mango drizzled with honey, all the while lifted by a bright pink-grapefruit tone. There's an earthy tone to the finish, akin to gently sweet lemon iced tea."-AP
We invite you to see for yourself how refreshing a glass of cold Riesling can be on a warm day! Come by to taste these, or order a handful of bottles of each to chill and enjoy at home.
