New York
View Full Description [+ Read More]
New York produces wine across several distinct regions, with the Finger Lakes emerging as the state's most celebrated appellation for cool-climate viticulture. The deep glacial lakes moderate temperatures along their slopes, creating conditions where Riesling reaches notable aromatic precision and acidity. Ravines and Boundary Breaks both draw from Finger Lakes terroir, producing dry Riesling with the mineral tension the region is known for. On the East End, Channing Daughters works with skin-contact techniques, as seen in their Ramato, a copper-hued wine made from Pinot Grigio with extended maceration. New York's output extends beyond wine into craft bitters, represented here by Bennett Bitters, a Brooklyn-based producer whose range spans aromatic, herbal, and spiced expressions used in cocktail preparation. The range across these producers reflects the state's breadth, from age-worthy Finger Lakes Riesling to artisan bar ingredients.
