The wine region of Finger Lakes

Quality hub of the American northeast, signature Riesling: dry, lively, mineral whites with notes of green apple, lemon, white peach and wet stone, sharp acidity comparable to the best Germans. Also off-dry and sweet botrytised versions. Precise Chardonnay, fine, fresh Pinot Noir (red fruits), peppery Cabernet Franc. Continental climate tempered by 11 glacial lakes (Cayuga, Seneca).

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).
