FORGE CELLARS, RIESLING DRY FREESE VINEYARDS SENECA LAKE
$24.99MANDARIN ORANGE – LILAC – SUCCULENT
The Freese Vineyard is essentially a northern extension of Breakneck. We can think of these two sites as siblings, their composition is similar (comparable soils, same grape) but the way they carry themselves (the fruit, the flavors, the aromas) show total individualism. Freese is prudent and precise, offering ripeness and restraint, while Breakneck carries intensity and drama.
