The Perfect Wine for Spring

“Spring is natures way of saying, let’s party.” – Robin Williams

The spring season and warmer weather always creates opportunities for celebration. Whether it’s dinner outside, weddings, baby or bridal showers, or simply sitting in your favorite chair on the porch with a good book, there’s something about nice weather that brings out the best in everything. For us, a glass of wine is always the perfect addition to top off these special moments. 

For events and relaxing moments alike, we are loving our 2017 Riesling. Why should you add this vintage to your next shindig or simply your fridge? Check out our top 5 reasons why it’s the perfect addition below.

  1. It makes your palette happy. Our medium dry/sweet Riesling contains 100% Finger Lakes Riesling. This Riesling opens with a citrus blossom bouquet and boasts lemon flavors lingering over a muted mineral finish. There’s nothing over powering about it. Everyone will love it!
  2. It’s versatile and pairs well with nearly any dish. Our favorite Riesling companions include chicken, pork, white fish, or take out Thai food.
  3. Speaking of wine pairings, it goes best with NY Aged Cheddar. NY aged cheddar is affordable and a crowd pleaser. Serve it along with your favorite butter crackers and you have a match made in heaven!
  4. It’s refreshing. When it’s hot out you need something that’s going to keep you feeling good. Thanks to our Riesling’s citrus bouquet, it’s refreshing on its own or you can add to seltzer and ice for a nice wine spritzer.
  5. It’s reflects the Finger Lakes Region in all it’s glory. As of recent years, Riesling has become the signature wine of the Finger Lakes and if you’re looking to add that local vibe to your next party, this is the perfect representation of everything good in our region. First brought to the area in the 1950s, Riesling reflects it region and vineyard better than any grape varietal.

We can certainly go on and on about why we love Riesling, but would rather you try it for yourself! Stop by our tasting room next time you’re in the area, order online or pick up one of our bottles at a liquor store near you.
