Finger Lakes Cabernet Franc 2022

Deep purple. No vegetal notes on nose. Mellow tannins, fruity, but not jammy. This is very nice. I generally don’t enjoy cab franc so much due to green pepper/ herb thing. But it’s subtle and way in the background here. Quite nice. — 14 days ago

Ravinous Blaufränkisch Merlot

Light, but still full bodied. Paired it tonight with the steak recipe the winery suggested, and it was amazing! — 6 months ago

Argetsinger Vineyard Pinot Noir 2020

This is very much like a Bourgogne Rouge or Sancerre rouge from a top-tier domaine. Pale color. Very precise nose shows deep, just-ripe, pure cherry, a slight herbal note, and lots of crushed stone, seemingly on the limestone end of the spectrum. Intense but light-footed in the mouth, there’s deep, tart-but-ripe cherry fruit initially, turning savory and minerally on the long finish. Crisp acids. Very nicely done. Thanks to my brother Angelo for the gift! — 9 months ago

I feel like the 2020 Racines were better than usual across the range.

16 Falls Vineyard Dry Riesling 2018

Still hanging in there. Nose is clearly diminished, but the wine still rocks. Minerally, like it was filtered through slate. Apple, pear, still a touch of petrol. Little honeysuckle? So good. — a month ago

Argetsinger Vineyard Dry Riesling 2019

Powerful for an American Riesling, showing lots of minerals and even a bit of petrol overlaying floral, lemon, and lime aromas. As dry as advertised. Not as heavy bodied as its overseas or Washington State counterparts, likely because of the cooler climate. — 5 months ago

Estate Bottled Finger Lakes Dry Riesling 2021

A little reward for one of the cooks (me) after getting the Christmas Eve meat sauce simmering. (My sister-in-law is doing the fish sauce, if you’re wondering.) Fresh, appley, minerally nose. Very perfumed and deeply aromatic. Great balance on the palate. Bone dry, some fruit, deep stony minerals. Crisp acids. Lovely. — 8 months ago

Field Notes Finger Lakes White Blend 2023

Blend of Riesling, Valvin Muscat, and Gerwetztraminer. Off dry, very floral. Lemon- lime, crisp and bright. Good acidity- finish is a little thin- but quite refreshing. I’m not a huge fan of off- dry whites, but this is pleasant — a month ago
