Frost Cuvee (2008)

This unique white wine has a new composition every vintage, with a varying blend of Riesling and Gewürztraminer, accented by our cuvée of Pinot Noir. Between the first autumn frost after the harvest is over and the last spring frost, this exciting fusion gradually takes shape in the winery as all our other estate wines are blended to perfection. Out of this evolution, the Frost Cuvee emerges as a refreshing off-dry wine suitable for many occasions.

HJW Vineyard

The HJW Vineyard site was planted in 1976. This vineyard is defined by its thin, gravelly topsoil, yielding low-vigor vines and expressive vibrant wines, capturing minerality from the soil. Due to the mesoclimate, the wines portray an unprecedented minerality and acid structure allowing for excellent aging potential. The HJW vineyard is farmed under strict sustainable viticultural practices and is consistently some of the highest quality fruit we harvest.

Dry Riesling (2007) - Magdalena Vineyard

Magdalena Vineyard enjoys one of the warmest sites in the Finger Lakes. The unique characteristics of our Magdalena vineyard-specific Riesling result from the site’s elevation, soil composition, and proximity to Seneca Lake. This is a rich, deep, fruit-driven wine with spectacular flavors, complexity and finesse.

Bunch Select Late Harvest Riesling (2007)

This Trockenbeerenauslese style dessert wine is pressed only from hand-selected grapes that are affected by the botrytis mold or noble rot. Its intense nose and taste are full of honeyed peaches and apricots. It is a supreme example of the highly revered and most sought after king of Riesling dessert wines.

Dry Riesling (2008)

A dry Riesling with a crisp minerality and hints of lime and delicate citrus on the nose. Nicely balanced with a touch of honeyed grapefruit on the palate and a clean finish.

Dry Riesling Reserve (2007)

Specially-selected grapes hand harvested from our oldest low-yield vineyard. Elegant, rich style with brilliant fruit and a long lingering finish.

Late Harvest Riesling (2008)

Sweet melon nose with some fine lemony notes. The palate is a rich and broad Alsatian-style with higher residual sugar and bright acidity holding the melon/lemon fruit in fusion.

Semi-Dry Riesling (2008)

Semi-dry Rheingau-style Riesling with a ripe, expressive nose of fresh citrus and floral notes. Nice texture and some sweetness balanced by complex minerality with a soft citrus finish.

Gewürztraminer (2008)

Medium dry with a beautiful nose of rose petals accented by peaches, apples and melons. A light citrus touch to the taste and finish make this an excellent example of "Spicy Traminer."
