2021 Riesling "Gridley Bluff Point Vineyard"

Grapes for this wine are grown on the bluff of Keuka Lake by Donna and Louis Gridley.  This vineyard was planted in 2003 (the youngest used by Silver Thread) and is only a few acres. It is one of the highest elevation sites in the Finger Lakes, and faces east-southeast for maximum sunlight interception. Intense peach fruitiness and a touch of green characterize this not-to-be-missed Riesling that shows originality and flair.  Wonderful tension between the hint of natural sweetness and the lively acidity in this intensely aromatic wine. Medium dry.

100 cases produced.
