With a single sip, this may seem indisputably feminine with its exquisite white floral nose and soft, pink grapefruit palate. But a second or third sip reveals a surprisingly sleek complexity—hints of pine and lime zest on the palate, racy acidity and a long finish marked by a steely, dark minerality. ——A.I.(4/1/2011)—— 89

The nose on Keuka Lake’s Evergreen Lek Vineyard is wonderfully intriguing with dark notes of smoke, petrol and brine accented by hits of ripe, yellow peach. Dry on the palate with nuances of dark steel, smoke and orange peel, this medium-bodied Riesling is brightened by a flash of fresh orange acidity and sweet grapefruit pith on the finish. ——A.I.(2/1/2011)—— 87
