The reds from Glacier Ridge Vineyard have a power and structure that is unique to the Finger Lakes; a credit to the spectacular vineyard they hail from and management by Tony Damiani. Put simply, our Single Vineyard bottlings from Glacier Ridge try and stay out of the way of the vineyard and let the fruit and vintage speak for themselves. The result is classic, ripe Merlot; structural complexity and length on the pallet, raspberry and violet notes on the nose, all tied together by the smokiness that is typical of the Glacier Ridge Vineyard. Still a very young wine, long experience has shown that these tend to be undrinkable the first two years in bottle and truly hit their stride 8+ years out.
