Finger Lakes, New York State - USA
"The HJW Vineyard is one of the original Riesling plantings in all of the Finger Lakes, so the region can thank it till the cows come home. The extra couple of decades of vine-age help to give this that extra layer of complexity and richness to the aromatic profile. It is initially a tad quiet but quickly comes out of its shell allowing you to explore everything from white florals to ripe lemon zest. This vintage is particularly focused on the minerality bestowed upon it by the deep shale soils of the HJW vineyard. Hints of wet wool, crushed stones, and sea salt linger in the background. Beyond delicious!"

Customer Reviews
- Dry White Food Match
- Product Shipping
Dry Whites are very versatile and are best suited to foods that are higher in acidity (vinaigrettes etc.) or in fat – the natural acidity in the wines will cut through the foods.
They are perfect accompanied by:
Fresh and Roasted Vegetables
Starch-rich foods
Fish and Shellfish
