Forge Cellars Riesling Classique 2022 (750ml)
Product price
Description
Forge Cellars' 2022 Riesling Classique is a dry Riesling from Seneca Lake in the Finger Lakes, blended from fruit across the producer's vineyard sites. This is an approachable expression of New York Riesling at a gentle price point.
Stone, slate, and saline mineral notes anchor a wine with surprising depth for the category. The fruit sits forward and round in style, tropical melon flavors playing against those mineral layers to create real complexity in the glass. The overall effect is refreshing and food-friendly, built to drink well now.
Expert Reviews
A blend of fruit from all the sites Rick Rainey works with, the 2022 Dry Riesling Classique is impressively mineral for such an inexpensive wine. Stone, slate and salt—all rendered in the round, forward house style—lend great complexity to the base layer of tropical melon fruit.
