Finger Lakes

Cork

White

Described by managing partner Rick Rainey as ‘apricot jam, the perfect breakfast wine’, this is almost savoury and intensely flavourful. There is more richness and concentration here than expected, yet despite this intense fruit, the wine is bone dry with the racy acidity one expects from the 2021 vintage and a supple, gracious floral quality. The grapes come from a site in the town of Lodi where the slope is less steep than many, and there is less gravel, giving the Riesling planted here a balance between salinity and ripe fruit.
