some information on US rieslings

Apr 11, 2005 1 Replies

Hi,



Just received two bottles of riesling from some friends. The thing is that I don't know anything about USA produced wines, so could someone help me with some information ?



The first riesling is : Lamoreaux Landing, Finger Lakes, it's a dry riesling 2003



The 2nd is : Dr. Konstantin Frank, Finger Lakes, it's also dry 2003



I would like to have some more background information on these two wines. Can I keep them for a while or do they need to be drunk quickly, etc...



Thx a lot,



Xavier



Here is one of the area's official websites:

And here is a 1997 tasting analysis:

I generally haven't found that NY rieslings can last more than three years max, but maybe someone else on this board has had different experiences.
