Red Newt Cellars Dry Riesling / 750 ml

The 2016 Dry Riesling was sourced from Lahoma Vineyard on Seneca Lake. It comes in with just three grams per liter of residual sugar (a little less than the 2015) and 7.1 grams of total acidity (even higher than the 2015) and 13% alcohol. The winery said this was intentionally left a bit smoky on the nose during fermentation and via lees' aging to support the fullness of fruit. 91 Points Wine Advocate
