Idol Ridge Winery Sparkling Riesling 'String of Pearls' 2022 Review
This wine is a great example of how good Riesling can be in sparkling form. This is an impeccable example from the banks of New York’s Seneca Lake. The wine demonstrates a classic, mineral-driven nose with pops of petrol. There’s concentrated fruit on the palate, showcasing natural residual sugar but in all the right proportions. It has a great grip and lingering finish.
