  Pop and pour for NYE. Yellow straw in the glass, slightly gold tinged. Big, intoxicating aromas of apple orchard and white flowers with just a touch of petrol.
  
  Vivid, bright, and luscious on the palate with flavors of peach, caramelized apple, lemon, nectarine, and honeycomb. Abundant acidity, but not on the ripping high side. A little residual sugar, but it's offset nicely but the acid cut. Good length on the finish.
  
  Outstanding stuff, and a clear step up from the winery's stock dry offering. I think the price difference is worth it to upgrade to this.

  Peach, apple, apricot, wet stone, lychee
  High acidity, long finish, concentrated stone fruits - lots of lychee. Hint of spice as well, vanilla/clove.

  Roasted fennel, honey, chamomile nose. Massive bursty mouth full of pineapple, fresh sweet corn, honeycomb. One of the best from this winery in my records

  Very pale straw color; honeysuckle nose.
  Delicious fruit profile: pineapple and other tropical fruits, balanced with mineral notes and good acifity. This wine continues to perform beautifully.

  Finger Lakes Summer of Riesling 2023; 7/7/2023-7/10/2023 (Finger Lakes, New York, USA): FLX 2023 Day 1, Winery 2: A little bit more noticeable sweetness than the basic Wiemer Dry Riesling that balances the wine better. RS 0.8% (compared to 0.7%)
