Good wine
>I've never had a New York wine I liked. What do you suggest?
These comments refer to Finger Lakes. I have very little experience with
downstate wines.
Riesling, if you can find them. They are not widely distributed. They come in
both dry and off dry. A few god Chardonnay and Gewurztraminer are made. The
reds are generally short because it's not hot enough for a long period of time
for red grapes to ripen. There is some luck with lighter Pinot Noirs. NYS wines
have good acidity.
Downstate (Long Island and Hudson) are supposed to have a few good reds.
Someone else can comment on them.
