An exotic nose of lychee and white flowers, followed by flavors of lemon, lush fruit and spice, give this white extra appeal. The layers of flavor are balanced with a touch of crispness and the finish lingers. A pretty food wine—think Asian food and smoked cheeses.

Sweet and simple, this wine has a pretty nose that offers body and a delicate, dancing set of aromas all at once. On the palate, it’s a burst of flowers and honey. May be too precious for fans of drier whites, but overall, well made and fun to drink.

An appealing nose of full red fruit and punchy pepper lead this Cab Franc. On the palate, good acidity and balanced fruit flavors offer elegance. There’s a touch of oak overkill here, but overall, a nice wine.

An herbal, bright, red berry nose is followed by flavors of plum, white pepper and cherry. A gentle wine that’s easy to drink and a good pairing to more delicate dishes.

A lively nose of minerality and spice is followed by a more opulent wine on the palate, with flavors of honey and flowers and a slightly viscous mouthfeel. Though curvy, it’s not overly sweet, and finishes clean.

Starts with a feminine, slightly floral nose that leads into strong flavors of cherry some spice and plum. It’s a simple wine with a soft finish, but will be a good addition to the table if duck or mild cheeses are on the table.

Buttery, spiced aromas mingled with berry start this Pinot from Finger Lakes producer Fulkerson. Cherry, plum and smoke are present on the palate, and the wine has a soft, elegant character, but the body is weak and watery. There’s just not enough personality here to make an impact, despite the pleasant flavors.

A clean, minerally, citric nose with a touch of flowers leads into flavors of melon, lemon and lime with this dry Riesling. The wine is refreshing and lively but there’s ample structure, too. The finish is a bit thin but the wine will pair well with a variety of foods, especially cheeses and seafood.

Orange citrus and flowers lead the nose, and on the palate exhibits lime, apple and spice. It’s a touch sweet but overall, enjoyable and unique.

Intense tropical aromas are the hallmark of this semi-dry (Johannisberg) Riesling from New York’s Fulkerson. The flavors—lemon, apricot, apple—are intense but not heavy, and the wine strikes a good balance of acidity and sweetness. It’s not the most elegant or integrated of wines but it’s an excellent wine for food pairing and hot summer days.
