AVA (1986), ~2,000 ac, sandy-gravel soils from glacial moraines, ocean breezes preserving acidity.

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: Broker
In the past, he was a sort of fraud control agent who had to watch over the quality of merchant wines (he could carry a sword!). His function has evolved towards expertise (it was the brokers who established the famous 1855 classification in Bordeaux) and today he puts the producer in contact with the merchant.
