title: Bloomer Creek 2011 Tanzen Dame Auten Vineyard 1st Harvest Riesling (Finger Lakes)
description: Layers of spice, lanolin and orange rind stand out curiously on this intriguing Riesling fermented spontaneously with indigenous yeast, and subject to 5 months on its lees. It's strikingly brisk with tart, lemony acidity, but rich with a rustic, savory apple flavor. It's a funky, thoroughly unique wine, but also a remarkably complex wine to savor through the course of a long evening.
variety: Riesling
designation: Tanzen Dame Auten Vineyard 1st Harvest
