The Empire Estate Dry Riesling is produced in the Finger Lakes region of New York, where the cool climate and distinctive soil types create optimal conditions for Riesling cultivation. The vineyards are situated in well-draining, glacially deposited soils that are rich in minerals, providing excellent drainage and contributing to the wine’s crisp acidity and vibrant character. The grapes undergo fermentation in stainless steel tanks to maintain their pure fruit flavors and freshness. After fermentation, the wine is aged briefly on its lees, enhancing its texture and complexity while preserving its signature clarity and minerality. This process results in a Dry Riesling with bright citrus notes, floral aromas, and a clean, refreshing finish.
