Wine Review: This very pale yellow dry Riesling finished in 2nd place in our recent blind tasting. It opens with a fresh citrus like bouquet. On the palate, this wine is light bodied, well balanced, crisp, and pleasantly dry. The flavor profile is citrus with mineral notes infused throughout. The finish is dry and very refreshing. The panel would match this wine with swordfish. Enjoy - KWGTP

Winemaker Notes: Our Riesling aims to define a new style of Finger Lakes Riesling distinct from its German and Alsatian counterparts. It is intensely aromatic with floral notes, citrus fruit and a distinct mineral character. With good acidity, this wine is very crisp and elegant and will age gracefully. On the palate, the Ravines Riesling shows unusual richness, medium body and a lingering smooth finish. This Riesling is an exceptionally versatile wine when it comes to food pairings. With the crispness and aromatic intensity, it can be paired with seafood dishes, poultry and milder cheeses.
