Anthony Road Riesling 2022

The 2022 growing season started with a cold January, that turned into a typical, average Spring for the Finger

Lakes. Spring and early Summer were warm and dry, almost drought conditions, with conditions changing to

warm and wet by mid-August. September saw a bit more moisture and cooler temperatures, but disease pressure

was low and fruit quality was high going into the month.

An early harvest, although light, brought in ripe, clean, delicious fruit.

Harvest dates: October 11th, 12th and 14th, 2022

Vineyard: Martini Family Vineyards & Nutt Road

Winemaking Notes: Machine harvested fruit. Pressed into stainless steel tank to cold settle for two days then racked off the juice bottoms into stainless steel tanks to ferment. Native and commercial yeasts were employed to create many expressions of the fruit that would be used in the final blending of the wine. The wine spent about 7 months resting on the lees before the wine was readied for bottling.

Bottling date: July 27, 2023, August 29 & 30, 2023

Tasting Notes: Flavors and aromas of crisp apple, tangerine, lime zest, floral notes and thyme.
