Silver Thread 2002 Riesling (Finger Lakes)
- Best Buy
- $13
Although the aromas are sweet, oozing with pear nectar, stone fruit, dried spices and apple blossoms, this wine features only 1.5% residual sugar. It’s fairly big for a Finger Lakes Riesling, with a slightly oily texture, and comes across as being close to dry thanks to firm acids on the finish. The only problem with this wine is its limited availability.

Silver Thread 1999 Reserve Chardonnay (Finger Lakes)
- Editors' Choice
- Online Exclusive
- $17
A breakthrough Chardonnay from upstate New York. Aromas of toasted nuts and buttered spiced pears are classic, with flavors of cinnamon, pears and cashews that feel custardy in the mouth. Finishes long, with tangy acids and nutty overtones. Editors’ Choice.

Silver Thread 2009 Pinot Noir (Finger Lakes)
- $20
There’s a whiff of cherry blossom perfume on this beautifully concentrated, elegantly structured Pinot from Silver Thread. On the palate, fleshy red fruit flavors are accented by vivacious acidity and a twinge of plum skin bitterness. Finishes bold with a coating of furry tannins.

Silver Thread 2008 Blackbird Cabernet Franc-Cabernet Sauvignon (Finger Lakes)
- $22
Smoke and bramble fringe vibrant cassis and cranberry flavors on this rich, round wine. Made predominantly from Cabernet Franc, it’s a touch plush and soft, but boasts supple tannins and an elegant violet and vanilla finish.

Sure, it’s a light hue of red, but one whiff tells you it’s not going to lack for flavor. Strawberries and tart cherries mingle with scents of wet bracken, and a sweet spicy sensation lingers on the finish. Light in body but pretty, with a sense of elegance and harmony. Drink now.

Silver Thread 2008 Chardonnay (Finger Lakes)
- Online Exclusive
- $15
Savory on the nose and palate with notes of cooked apples, pears and spice, Silver Thread’s Chardonnay is subdued in style but easy going for everyday enjoyment. A dry, medium bodied wine with a squirt of lemony acidity that brightens the mid-palate.

Silver Thread 2007 Off-Dry Riesling (Finger Lakes)
- Online Exclusive

This off-dry Riesling is redolent of flowers and lemon in the nose, and the lemon freshness continues on the palate. Zippy and slightly sweet, it’s a simple but enjoyable wine that’s perfect for a summertime quaff or everyday enjoyment with spicy cuisine.
