2016 Falling Man Dry Riesling
The Falling Man vineyard is just over one acre of Riesling planted on the western slope of Keuka Lake just below the winery, tasting room, and Goldman vineyard. This vineyard gets its name from its extreme slope and tortuous climb back up the hill. Resting on excessively well-drained soils made up of outwash glacial material, the vineyard has varying and irregular topography, which can be seen very clearly when driving a tractor on the 30% slope.
