HJW Vineyard Riesling 2022

“Hermann J. Wiemer helped put the Finger Lakes on the map with its stunning Riesling expressions, and the winery continues to raise the bar for this region with exemplary single-vineyard bottlings like the HJW Vineyard Riesling. This wine offers focused and concentrated citrus aromas, ranging from lime zest to lemon oil. The palate is brimming with notes of pineapple and grapefruit emphasized by a zippy acidity.”

Magdalena Vineyard Cabernet Franc 2022

Sourced from Hermann J. Wiemer’s prized Magdalena Vineyard — located on the edge of Seneca Lake — this Cabernet Franc showcases the elegance of Finger Lakes Cabernet Franc. The wine opens with bright fruit notes, but complex notes of cedar, tobacco leaf and smoke reveal themselves after some time in the glass. The wine is concentrated and has a great structure, suggesting you can enjoy it with a hearty meal, or cellar it for a few years.
