Wine Review: This clear and pale straw colored dry-styled Riesling from Apollo's Praise in the Finger Lakes opens with an inviting lychee and Easter lily bouquet with hints of lime zest. On the palate, this wine is light plus bodied with plus acidity. The mouthfeel is round, bright, and zesty. The flavor profile is a tasty lychee and passionfruit blend with notes of lime and white pepper. I also detected hints of grapefruit pith, lemon zest and tonic water. The finish is dry, and its flavors and acidity linger and last for a while. I would pair this dry Riesling with grilled marinated citrus chicken. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Interview Series – Brian Pruett – Dry Creek Vineyard – Feb 2026

On Wednesday, February 25, 2026, we interviewed Brian Pruett. Brian is the winemaker at Dry Creek Vineyard. We covered eight wines during the visit. We started with Chenin Blanc and a single vineyard Sauvignon Blanc, both from the 2024 vintage. Then we tried three single-vineyard and one historic-field-blend Zinfandel from the 2022 vintage. As you will recall, we really liked 2022 as a Zinfandel vintage. Finally, we wrapped up with their 2021 Red Blend and their flagship Cabernet Sauvignon from the 2022 vintage. It was a great tasting and a lot of fun. In this post, you can learn what we learned about Brian and the history of the winery and read our reviews of all of these impressive wines.
