The 2017 Riesling by Forge Cellars hails from the enchanting Finger Lakes region, renowned for producing elegant and high-quality wines. This Riesling expresses the essence of the local terroir, characterized by rich soils and a specific microclimate ideal for this variety. In appearance, it showcases a bright straw yellow color. On the nose, it offers a complex bouquet, where notes of white-fleshed fruit, peach, and subtle floral hints emerge, complemented by a light minerality that reflects the specificity of the soil of origin. On the palate, the wine is balanced, with a lively acidity that supports its freshness throughout the sip. The finish is clean and persistent, with returns of fruit and minerals. This Riesling is an excellent example of how the Finger Lakes terroir can be expressed through a classic variety, offering a refined and memorable tasting experience. Perfect to serve with fish dishes or as an aperitif.
