    November 5, 2021 - Stone fruit reserves, minerality, and shortbread/pastry (sweater than an autolitic note). Time has really transformed this into something beautiful.

    Medium minus acid with a citrus-dominated finish.

    This is in a really great place now. Could probably go another ~5 years, but why wait? Currently exhibitng mature notes, while clinging onto structure.

    July 5, 2020 - Has aged well. Fruit and petrol big time on the nose and palate. Good acidity, and considerably more residual sugar than I remember. Intense and complex. I prefer a drier style in dry Riesling, but very good for what it is..

    April 14, 2020 - Potent nose of petrol, yellow fruit and a touch of lime. Palate is astringent with deep flavors of apricot, pineapple, and meaty papaya with slate minerality and a long, pithy finish. Intense and complex - probably the best bottle of Finger Lakes riesling I've had. Time has been very kind to this vintage.

    December 1, 2019 - Served blind
    Strong petrol Riesling aromas,
    almost to the point of being medicinal.
    And bone dry which makes this a bit astringent on opening.

    But with 2 days air this has opened up well and drinks rather nicely.
