Empire Estate, Dry Riesling, Finger Lakes, New York 2019

Shimmering silver-gold in color, on the nose there are intense mineral aromas of crushed gravel, wet shale & limestone, combined with notes of green & golden apple, peach, white flower & lemon oil. An intense burst of acidity hits the palate, followed by flavors of lime, grapefruit pith and ripe orange & apricot, all leading to a lengthy, mineral-focused finish. 

Empire Estate was created to showcase an incredible winemaking region that New Yorkers have right in their own backyard: The Finger Lakes. This wine was crafted to express the dry style of this dynamic grape.
