Anthony Nappa 2013 Luminous Riesling (Finger Lakes)

Country: US / Luminous
Variety: Riesling New York
Winery: Anthony Nappa / Finger Lakes

Luminous is an apt word to describe this sun-kissed, blossomy wine chock full of plump yellow peach, mango and pineapple flavors. There’s so much more beyond fruit here though. A strike of lemon-lime acidity cuts through the palate, lending balance and vibe. The finish is long, accompanied by a delightfully astringent kick of lime zest. Drinks well now but should mature well through 2020.
