VINEYARD NOTES
These Riesling grapes come from our vineyard on Seneca Lake, located in Hector, New York. This area is the warmest mesoclimate in the Finger Lakes known as the ‘Banana Belt’. Temperatures here are a few degrees warmer compared to Keuka Lake thus providing riper fruit notes. The soils are characterized by deep honeoye silt loam. Riesling for our Reserve style is picked last and a portion of the grapes are affected by botrytis.
