Forge Cellars Dry Riesling Willow Vyd Seneca Lake 2020
92 points Wine Spectator
Enticing, with jasmine and honeysuckle notes providing lots of lift, while lemon pith, citrus oil and quinine hints add drive and tension. Shows a nice slatey echo through the finish, too. Drink now through 2026. 376 cases made. James Molesworth
377 cs production -- lemon meringue - rose water - chiseled
Winermaker's Notes:
In its second vintage as a lieu-dit, Willow Riesling has shown admirable determination and finesse. It has been a rising star among the rest of the “class,” showing greater clarity and precision with each passing year. In this wine, we are often reminded of a classical ballerina with their ethereal footwork that enchants the audience, matched by chiseled limbs that only years of discipline and practice could mold.
