Red Tail Ridge - Good Karma Riesling 2024 750ml

Red Tail Ridge Good Karma 2024 is a distinctive Finger Lakes wine with a charitable heart. This is a "win-win" purchase, as 10% of the profits from every bottle go directly to food banks to support food insecure people. You can truly drink well while doing good.

The 2024 vintage was defined by a warm growing season. After spring rains, a dry June set in. Consistent, warm days through July and August gave the fruit ample time to develop beautiful ripeness. The harvest was smooth, yielding a healthy quantity of high-quality clusters.

In the winery, the grapes were picked in mid-October and destemmed. A small portion, 6%, showed healthy botrytis, a "noble rot" that adds a layer of complexity. The wine was fermented in stainless steel to protect its fresh character. It then spent three months on light lees, a process that builds texture and body.

Finished in a semi-sweet style with 2% residual sugar, this wine is not cloying. It is beautifully balanced by a high level of natural acidity. This is a terroir-driven wine that shows the precision and thoughtful winemaking that defines Red Tail Ridge.
