Winemaker Notes
Ravines own unique style of Riesling: an elegant, dry style with delicate, complex aromatics, distinct minerality, and vibrant acidity. The gentle extraction methods allow the cool-climate character to shine. The nose displays white flower notes, citrus, white peach and apple aromas as well as a distinct minerality. On the palate, the Finger Lakes acidic backbone provides great focus, liveliness. The aging on the fine lees has resulted in a gentle round texture supporting the floral and mineral elements of this Riesling. A long, clean finish promises a bright evolution of this wine.
