Howie, Fox Run Dry Riesling question.

Not very often one comes across any white from Finger Lakes up here so how do you rate the 2013 Fox Run?

I've haven't had it, at least not the 2013. I may have had some a few years ago of a different vintage. I don't get to the Finger Lakes often, as it over a 2 hour drive and there a so many nice wineries locally, on both sides of the border. Good, solid winery. A local wine blogger posted this report. http://nittanyepicurean.blogspot.com/2014/10/2013-fox-run-dry-riesling.html

Yes, they're good now, but it would be interesting to see how they are with age.

Bob:

FL Rieslings drink well when young: the bright liveliness of youth.

They drink even better when aged. They've got the acidity and heft to hold up for a decade and more. Fox Run is among those wineries that produces such Rieslings.
