Wine Review: This almost clear colored “dry-styled” Riesling from Wagner in the Finger Lakes is very good. It opens with a yellow grapefruit bouquet with a hint of lime. On the palate, this wine is light bodied, dry and balanced. The flavor profile is a mineral infused lime with notes of gentle yellow grapefruit and a touch of kiwi mixed in. The finish is dry and its flavors are nicely prolonged. This good value Riesling is very food friendly and would pair perfectly with swordfish skewers. Enjoy – Ken

Winemaker Notes: A single vineyard release of our Dry Riesling, an elegant, versatile food wine. This is not to be missed! A bigger and riper Riesling than our Dry Riesling, this wine is beautiful with food or to enjoy with friends. A superb and versatile food wine. It's slightly round mouth feel makes it a perfect match for fish, seafood, chicken, pork and mild cheeses.
