From a favorable location on the south eastern side of Seneca Lake, Humphreys Vineyard provides balanced, intense Riesling grapes year after year. The vineyard’s east-west orientation creates clean, delicate, and delicious fruit. Our decision to bottle this wine as a single vineyard selection reflects not only on our belief in its quality, but in the uniqueness of this site. We ferment selectively in neutral barrels to add structure and help develop the lovely round mouth-feel characteristic of Keuka Spring wines.

Our dry Humphreys Riesling delights the nose with hints of apple blossom and zesty citrus. Bold and brilliant, its notes of bright acidity are balanced with rich flavors of white peach and honeysuckle, all capped off with a long, clean and satisfying finish.

Crisp and aromatic, our Humphreys Vineyard Riesling is an excellent accompaniment to grilled seafood, roasted root vegetables, or sliced apples and pears with blue cheese.

92 | VA lifted, botrytis? Honey and poached fruits. A definite touch of Bot. Big flavour & structure. Slight hotness on palate. Like it all the same.

90 | An unusual aroma; redcurrant jelly and some white pepper. Soft green herbs. Plenty of sweetness but seems to stand apart from the acidity giving a faintly cloying character.

88 | hints of saffron and ginger with lime candies, peach gummies, a clean mouthfeel, and an uncomplicated finish. Was this made from declassified grapes?

95 | A bold, oxidative style with gorgeous waxy nuances and a hint of feijoa. The palate is flavoursome and assertive. I love this bold style.
