  easy drinking riesling, had it a touch cold, soft aromas of melon and apple. I think this bottle is at its peak or just past. very soft in the mouth, a touch sweet but not in a bad way. went well with the pumpkin/apple soup and port tenderloin. I wouldn't wait to drink this wine

  Delicious, having a heard time on the notes from memory at present but this was a nice, clean Riesling. Something was odd about the finish, maybe a hint of booze, but the entire experience here was very nice.

  This is a very nice Riesling from the finger lakes. Floral nose, with citrus flavors and a nice acidic and long last finish. Could cellar a few more years.

  Great nose, smooth floral notes, mineral finish. Enjoyed this as it warmed up, was able to discern melon and mango, a touch of honey. Paired with mild caurry apple chicken and it was perfect.

  Very pale in color. On the nose very similar to a mosel riesling. Lots of white peaches/nectarines with a faint hint of rubber. On the palette the wine is rounder than one would expect from the nose with a rather creamy texture mid-palette and a hint of what tastes like residual sugar on the leading edge. Still stone fruit but with a melon/mango note and a hint of rubber followed by a wave of chalk and flint on the (quite long) finish. At first I thought it needed more acid to really shine, but as it opened up the acid really came out and it started drinking better and more balanced.
