Flower Day Recognition on the Global Stage

Feb 16, 2026 | Featured, Reviews & Articles

We’re honored to be featured in New York, a Pioneering Vineyard, an article written by a French journalist recognizing the state’s rise as a world-class wine region defined by precision, elegance, and terroir-driven wines shaped by a cool climate.

Named as occupying “a central place” in the reputation of the Finger Lakes, our Flower Day Riesling 2024 receives a feature as a luminous wine marked by floral aromatics, vibrant acidity, and a striking sense of purity that reflects the region’s extraordinary potential for refined white wines.
