Moderately full-bodied, our Dry Riesling is well-rounded, but zesty and fresh, offering notes of tropical fruit and peach with a clean acidity and lingering spiciness on the palate.
Ratings
89 pts: 2020 New York Wine Classic: "Summer fruit salad; kiwi, orange, grilled peach, lime and banana. Clean, savory, saline and taut on the palate with fine precision and balance. Versatile and charming."
89 pts: Catherine Fallis, Master Sommelier - Planet Grape Wine Review: "Light and fresh with notes of red delicious and gala apple, lemon lime soda, ginger, honey and nutmeg."
88 pts: James Molesworth, Wine Spectator: "A bracing style, with pippin apple and kiwifruit core notes carried by crunchy acidity. Late flash of talc adds to the chiseled feel."

I was recently on vacation in Lake George and stopped into your winery. The staff was knowledgeable and so friendly. I purchased your dry reisling. I am not typically a reisling fan but this was by far one of the most delicious wines I have ever tasted!! I have tried to find it everywhere since then but it is not sold on Long Island. I will be ordering online!!!

Really enjoy this wine. Many Rieslings are too sweet, and this is crisp. Nice served extra cold and is great to sit on the deck and sip.
