The wine region of Cayuga Lake
New York AVA at the heart of the Finger Lakes (around the longest glacial lake, moderating microclimate, fertile soils, west-facing morning-sun slopes): Riesling is king in cool-climate whites — dazzling aromas of lemon, green apple, jasmine and honeysuckle, intense minerality, vibrant preserved acidity. Chardonnay, Cabernet Franc, Gewürztraminer and Pinot Gris as complements; lake-ice effect moderates slow, balanced maturation.
The wine region of New York
America's 3rd wine state by volume, striking diversity. Finger Lakes the signature: cool-climate Riesling, dry to off-dry, mineral and lively with notes of lime, apple, evolving petrol and white flowers — a US benchmark. Warmer Long Island for peppery Cabernet Franc and supple Merlot. Hudson Valley (Seyval, Vidal).
The word of the wine: Clone
A vine propagated from a single specimen (by cuttings or grafting), as opposed to mass selection, which starts from a family of vines.
