Keuka Spring Vidal Blanc Ice Wine ">
| Vintage: | 2018 |

| Winery: | Keuka Spring |
| Description: | In the early 1980's Len and Judy Wiltberger had the opportunity to purchase 30 acres of land overlooking Keuka Lake. With their love of wine and winemaking experience, they planted several wine grape varieties at the site with help from their children and Len's sisters. They opened a tasting room in the mid-80's, adjacent to the vineyards, as an outlet for their premium wines. Keuka Spring's first vintage was in 1985. For 5 years, current winemaker August Deimel has created a growing reputation for the wines worldwide. Receiving his Master's from Cornell, he's well respected in the Finger Lakes. Keuka Spring has been Winery of the Year, Value Brand of the Year and won a Governor's Cup. They've had positive coverage and great scores in Wine Enthusiast, Wine and Spirits, Wine Advocate, Wine Spectator, JamesSuckling, Vinous Media, The Washington Post, and The San Francisco Chronicle. Vidal Blanc grapes grow happily in just about any weather. Their thick, rubbery skins expand and contract with successive waves of warmth and chill through the late fall and early winter. They develop a rich palette of fruit flavors that can vary from vintage to vintage. Keuka Spring hand-picked the frozen grapes for this 2018 at two friends' vineyards on Seneca Lake on the same January morning at 17⁰F. |
