The 2020 Dry Riesling comes in with just two grams per liter of residual sugar and seven of total acidity, making it a bit crisper than last year's, plus 10.8% alcohol. Given the price point, this might be the best intersection of value and quality in Long Island Riesling in this report, although it's close. This avoids any shrillness and seems nicely balanced while still earning its spurs as a properly dry Dry Riesling. There's a hint of tartness on the finish and a texture that allows it to coat the palate. It's not a big overachiever this year, but it certainly represents the category well. I'd also note that it is not so open right now, unlike its recent predecessor, and it has a chance to improve over the next year or so. It can certainly be drunk now, though. It is going to be a particularly nice food pairing in warmer weather. It should hold throughout most of this decade, maybe more.
