From Sommelier Andrew Stover (founder of Vino50: The Grape American Road Trip).

Blend 90% Vidal Blanc from Doyle Vineyards and 10% Riesling Doyle Vineyards and Anthony Roads Vineyards – both from the Finger Lakes region.

Next year, they are making a “bubbly” version of this wine.

Nose is crisp and citrus – with notes of lemon/lime.

Palate: Crisp and clean with really nice lemon/lime notes from the Vidal Blanc, but a touch of sweetness on the finish which balances the citrus.

Available in Washington DC, Virginia, Maryland and New York (all five boroughs) – and available from the winery or from Brooklyn-Oenology (twitter: @bklynoenology) who also contributed to the making of this wine.
