About this product
Ravines' single-vineyard Riesling from the Argetsinger site on Seneca Lake's east slope — one of the finest expressions of dry Finger Lakes Riesling. Morten Hallgren's French-influenced precision translates into a wine of Alsatian character: bone-dry, mineral, with lemon zest, green herbs, and a stony persistence that improves for 5-8 years. A must-have for any serious American restaurant wine list.

elevate
Ravines Argetsinger Riesling — bone-dry, mineral, Alsatian in style — elevates sea scallops with parsnip: the wine's dry mineral precision and citrus note amplifies the scallop's natural sweetness while cutting through the parsnip cream. Apple bridges the wine's fruit character with the scallop's delicacy. A pairing that announces the Finger Lakes as serious fine dining territory.

A modern American pairing that showcases Finger Lakes Riesling's food versatility.
