Winemakers from the Finger Lakes region in New York know how to produce – and promote – Riesling. It’s the grape they all talk about though they grow many others including Gewurztraminer, one of my favorite Finger Lakes-grown-grapes.
I was surprised and delighted when I stopped by to taste the Fox Run Vineyard wines at
New York Drinks New York (an event at Astor Wines) this week and vineyard manager Dan Mitchell actually wanted to talk about Lemberger instead. It’s a red grape that’s currently taking New York by storm, according to Mr. Mitchell. “We can’t keep it in stock.”
