WINE DESCRIPTION
Heart & Hands Dry Riesling is a stunning and focused expression of Riesling from a boutique producer in New York's Finger Lakes region. Managed by Tom and Susan Higgins, Heart & Hands operates with meticulous attention to detail, monitoring individual rows on their small, west-facing estate on Cayuga Lake. The harvested fruit undergoes basket pressing and is chilled before a lengthy fermentation process of 76 days at 53 degrees in stainless steel tanks. This careful winemaking results in a Riesling that is precise and vibrant, showcasing crisp acidity and a clean, mineral-driven palate. Heart & Hands Dry Riesling epitomizes the dedication and craftsmanship of its producers, offering a remarkable example of Finger Lakes winemaking excellence.
