2014 the Goldilocks year in the Finger Lakes.  Not too hot, not too cold.  Not too dry, not too wet.  And WOW are these wines ageworthy.  And while they still have quite a bit of life in them, they are drinking superbly right now.   

2014 Riesling - Tango Oaks Vineyard

Tango Oaks Riesling has established the vine age and maturity to support a dry and mineral driven Riesling.  With the vineyard’s Alsatian clone Riesling and extremely gravelly soil, our goal is to continue pursuing the elegance that Tango Oaks Riesling is capable of, both young and with appropriate bottle age. 
"Another knockout from Red Newt’s lineup of 2014s, the Tango Oaks is complex and fascinating, offering a brilliant nose of meyer lemon, thyme, quinine, and apple blossoms. The palate is both succulent and lean, with a gorgeous mineral complexity and a smoky, endless finish. Superb. 4 grams per liter residual sugar."  -Vinous 94 points

2014 Riesling - Bullhorn Creek Vineyards

A textural and spicy dry Riesling that plays off the unique attributes of the long ripening required of Bullhorn Creek. Built to grow over many years in bottle in this delicate style which is a tribute to classic Finger Lakes Rieslings that have come before.  Citrus notes on the nose and palate, lead to a crisp finish.

2014 Riesling - Sawmill Creek Vineyards - North Block 

Steps away from the "South Block" of this same vineyard, the similarities and contrasts of site and style are remarkable. A sweeter style of Riesling luscious fruits dominate the palate while the acidity of the wine allows for a lovely finish.

Inspired by the crystalline beauty and clarity of German Spatlese Rieslings, the Sawmill Creek 'North Block" Rieslings is the site we believe best suits that style of wine. With lower alcohol and higher residual sugar, the natural acidity of Sawmill Creek makes this wine wonderfully refreshing and feather light. Juicy when young but made to be aged for many years.
