4 from Finger Lakes: Pale straw color. Peachy and bright on the nose, orange blossom, white peaches, drizzled with some honey, lime and white floral potpourri. Dry and brisk on the palate, a very tangy and crisp wine with chalk, river stones, quinine, The fruit underneath offers some juiciness to balance out the minerals. Orange, lime, grapefruit, some sliced green apple, quite pure and vibrant throughout. A deeply mineral-centric wine with refreshing bone dry appeal, hints of ginger, chalk, clover. Begs for oysters, clams From vineyards on the east side of Seneca Lake, this is a Seneca Lake twist on an Alsace blend of 65% Riesling and 35% Gewurztraminer, 12% alcohol, with no residual sugar.

Pleasant enough blend of Riesling and Gewurtz, if that is what you are looking for. A wine looking for an identity.
