Pretty orange blossom and yellow peach aromas against a backdrop of petrol make this “gently dry,” light-bodied Riesling a classic expression of the grape. Lots of ripe stonefruit and florals shower the palate, leading to a persistent finish marked with vibrant acidity and a bright lime skin finish.

Aromas of lime, honey and petroleum mesh well with a hint of fresh brioche in this off-dry style Riesling. The flavor profile is a bit bony, featuring lemon, underripe nectarine and bitter green almonds, but there’s a pleasant silkiness to the texture of this wine.

Dry and refreshing with clean, pure notes of white peach, orange blossoms and petrol on the nose and palate, this shows off Riesling’s pristine side. A splash of tart, underripe starfruit and fresh limes on the palate combine with a brisk acidity and wet stone minerality, giving this wine an invigorating feel.

A faint floral perfume lingers amidst the fresh apple and pear aromas on this dry, minerally Finger Lakes Riesling with a refreshing lemon-lime palate. Bracingly high acidity and a brisk lime pith astringency lead the way to a long, puckery finish.

The nose on Keuka Lake’s Evergreen Lek Vineyard is wonderfully intriguing with dark notes of smoke, petrol and brine accented by hits of ripe, yellow peach. Dry on the palate with nuances of dark steel, smoke and orange peel, this medium-bodied Riesling is brightened by a flash of fresh orange acidity and sweet grapefruit pith on the finish.

With a single sip, this may seem indisputably feminine with its exquisite white floral nose and soft, pink grapefruit palate. But a second or third sip reveals a surprisingly sleek complexity—hints of pine and lime zest on the palate, racy acidity and a long finish marked by a steely, dark minerality.

Both the nose and palate on this lovely dry Riesling bring to mind freshly pressed apples and pears, white florals and petrol. Zippy acidity and a persistent lime juice midpalate lead to a long, marzipan and bitter almond finish.

Another excellent Riesling from Keuka Lake Vineyards, this light-bodied, semi-dry wine is fragrant with apple blossoms and an intensely ripe pommelo palate. Refreshingly clean with an abundance of minerality and a brisk acidity, it finishes sweetly on a gentle lemon-lime note.
