About this product
The benchmark Finger Lakes dry Riesling — estate grown on Seneca Lake's shale and limestone-influenced soils. Steel-fermented for maximum freshness, it shows green apple, lemon zest, white peach, crushed slate, and a distinctive austerity that separates Finger Lakes Riesling from German and Alsatian counterparts. With age, develops petrol and toast complexity. One of North America's finest dry whites at any price.
