Wine Enthusiast Magazine Reviews 2022 Vintage

Mar 28, 2024 | Reviews

Wine Enthusiast Magazine reviewed our 2022 Rieslings and a selection of our Sparkling wines for their May 2024 buying guide. 8 wines received over 91 points and reviewer, at  Christina Pickard  included tasting notes and highlights for each of the wines. Of the 2022 Flower Day which received 94 points, she writes, “Wild fermented with minimal winemaking intervention, this is remarkably clean and downright delicious. Bright, delicate aromas of lemon-lime, apple skin and lavender talcum powder lead to a crisp, refreshing palate that pops with vibrant citrus and nervy acidity, with textural intrigue and a superlong finish to boot.”

Out Standing Stone Vineyards Timeline Dry Riesling recieved 92 points. Pickard writes, “Hermann J. Wiemer purchased this long-standing Seneca Lake property in 2017 and has taken the farming and winemaking up a big notch. This bottling is hugely likable, as richly honeyed and aromatic as the radiant gold hue suggests, all honeysuckle, jasmine flower and tangerine citrus. The palate is round and creamy, the acidity glides along for the ride. An opulent, cheese board-friendly.”
