Our 2024 Dry Riesling shows generous aromas of nectarine, mandarin, baked pear, and ginger with delicate hints of slate and white flowers. Mouth-watering acidity awakens the palate while pithy citrus notes provide structure and depth. This meticulously crafted blend is made from selected lots grown on the west side of Seneca Lake, carefully guided from grape to bottle.

Our Dry Riesling has aromas reminiscent of mandarin, melon and jasmine. Elegantly balanced by crisp acidity, the flavors evolve across the palate into a juicy citrus; tangelo like finish.
