There’s a peach tree in the back yard There’s a fig tree in the back yard There’s grapes growing back there too (no idea what kind…I’m guessing some native variety) Those aren’t the only three things of course…but they are the most LENNDEVOURS-appropriate things

Atwater Estate Vineyards 2004 Dry Riesling
There’s no doubt about it — my favorite white varietal is riesling. Of course, I don’t like every one I try. They need to have that that zing of acidity that ‘forces’ me into another sip (and another and anoter and another). New York’s Finger Lakes region is pretty well known for it’s riesling, with Dr. Konstantin Frank probably the most well known outside of the state. This relatively winter-hardy varietal has done very well in the region becuase it ripens even in the cool Finger Lakes climate and because good wines can be made from riesling that isn’t at…
