Hermann J. Wiemer 2008 Bunch Select Late Harvest Riesling (Finger Lakes)
- $95
Virtually dripping with honey, dried apricots and orange blossoms on the palate, this sunkissed Trockenbeerenauslese-style Riesling is liquid gold in a glass. Despite it’s whopping 25.8% residual sugar level, it’s orange marmalade and waxy honeycomb sweetness is balanced perfectly with a bright acidity and elegant darjeeling tea astringency, making this wine…

Smoke, honey and delicate white flowers meld luxuriously on this not-quite-dry beauty. Sweet white grapefruit juice flavors are intensely concentrated on the palate, highlighted by a shower of lime zest and a stony minerality on the finish.

Hermann J. Wiemer 2008 Magdalena Vineyard Dry Riesling (Finger Lakes)
- Online Exclusive
- $36
From its bright floral nose to its soft, sweet finish, there’s a gorgeous femininity to this outstanding Riesling. Dry in style but accented by notes of pink grapefruit and lychee, Magdalena’s daintiness is kept in check with a bracing acidity and elegant white tea astringency.

Hermann J. Wiemer 2009 Magdalena Vineyard Dry Riesling (Finger Lakes)
- Online Exclusive
- $36
Ripe yellow peaches, golden honey and billowing florals perfume this outstanding Riesling. Dry on the palate with a touch of stonefruit sweetness, it’s an impeccably complex wine with a shower of slate and stone in the midpalate and delicious lime pith astringency throughout.

Intense and bright with a wonderfully complex nose of slate and stones, combined with elegantly subdued florals. It’s dry, but there’s a whisper of lemon drop sweetness throughout. Beautifully balanced with an intensely mineral, steely finish.

Hermann J. Wiemer 2009 Late Harvest Riesling (Finger Lakes)
- $23
Jasmine blossom perfume trails from start to finish on this beautifully concentrated Late Harvest Riesling. Semisweet with a rich, honeyed palate, it’s balanced by whiffs of slate, smoke and petrol that linger through a lime and black tea finish. Lovely to drink now, but could develop further with a few years in the cellar.

Hermann J. Wiemer 2008 Semi-Dry Riesling (Finger Lakes)
- Online Exclusive
- $17
Beautifully perfumed with luscious stonefruit and a hint of jasmine blossoms, but not at all cloying, this off-dry Riesling is another favorite from Hermann J. Wiemer. Bouquets of white florals shower the palate as well, but then retreat in the midpalate allowing elegant mineral and lime flavors to shine through.
