Peconic Bay Winery
2006 Riesling
(Long Island)
A perfect Long Island Riesling which could scarcely differ more from the Finger Lakes offerings, and wouldn't be first choice with Long Island oysters. But make no mistake -- there is great charm and depth here. The long cool growing season here has given us lush tropical pineapple and mango aromas, and teaming with jasmine. Rich complex fruit in the mouth, which is quite fat and round, finishing long and relieved by a bit of tannic definition as well as surprising acidity .
