"Though New York's Finger Lakes region is renowned for its steely expressions of Riesling, who's to say another cool-climate white grape like Grüner Veltliner can't thrive there too? Working with only a small, half-acre plot of the variety on Seneca Lake, winemaker Kelby James Russell is showing the potential for Grüner Veltliner. This wine delivers the grape's signature white pepper and lemon aromas on the nose. There's a great tension between the waxy, round texture on the palate and the wine's naturally crisp acidity."
