Rated 88 Points by The Wine Advocate
“The 2016 Dry Riesling also has 2% Gewurztraminer and six grams per liter of residual sugar. This is all Finger Lakes fruit from Gold Seal Vineyard. In the Finger Lakes, six grams isn’t much. Beautifully done, it is perfectly balanced, fruity, but not fruit-forward; bright, but not austere. It fills the mouth nicely and shows good focus. This is a nice, easy-drinker that does everything well, a perfect porchsipper for the summer. It probably lacks the intensity to age well, but it will hold a few years, at the least. In the meanwhile, it tastes great and the price is right.” Mark Squires

Tasting Notes
Light yellow in color, hints of tangerine, orange peel, apricot and peach abound from the glass. Lush peach and apricot flavors mingle wonderfully with the zingy mid palate acidity. It’s an excellent sipping wine and a perfect complement to seafood, Asian cuisine, spicy foods and barbecue.
Winemaker Notes
This Riesling is fermented cool (62 F) to accentuate the flowery, perfumed aromas of this varietal. The vineyard and age of the vines showcase the “minerality’. It does not go through malo-lactic secondary fermentation and is bottled early to retain a zingy vibrant acidity. It is blended with 2% Gewurtraminer to add aromatics and richness to the wine.
Suhru Dry Riesling New York State Description
Suhru
New York, United States
Suhru is one of more than fifty brands produced on Long Island. Unlike long established wine labels, Suhru is unhampered by tradition and winemaker Russell Hearn creates young, innovative and vibrant wines. Influenced by his international experience and two decades of winemaking on Long Island, Russell’s ideas showcase the unique characteristics of New York grapes. At Suhru, we make wine from grapes chosen from select vineyards in regions where the vines and fruit grow best - Riesling and Pinot Grigio from the Finger Lakes region and Gewurztraminer, Shiraz, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot and Petit Verdot grown on the North Fork of Long Island. Applying the winemaker’s artistry, Russell blends different grapes with results greater than the sum of its parts. Made with passion and finesse, the Suhru brand is an eclectic collection of wines.
