Ravines Wine Cellars, Finger Lakes (New York) Riesling 2020

 There are some great deals to be had these days when it comes to Finger Lakes Riesling, and Ravines Wine Cellar2 2020 Riesling is a great example.  While the wine is a bit timid on the nose, subtle and elegant notes of lemon peels, white blossoms, and pool floats (a compliment for any Riesling, in my book) waft from the glass.  Riesling’s high acidity is there, and it is complemented by typical notes of citrus and a touch of tropical pineapple, but there is a really interesting roundness and body to this wine as well — more than one might expect for Riesling, and it works.
