Tasting Notes

Silver Thread Semi-Dry Riesling beautifully balances acidity and richness. A strategic blend of grapes from three sites, this wine combines the best attributes of each: 14% Silver Thread Estate Vineyard, 37% Doyle Fournier Vineyard (Seneca Lake), 49% Gridley Bluff Point Vineyard (Keuka Lake). This fermentation was arrested to allow gorgeous natural sweetness to balance the crisp acidity.

Aromas of peach, star fruit, kiwi and talc. Medium plus body with delicate acidity that mingles beautifully with the mild sweetness. Long finish with flavors of citrus custard and lanolin.
