Forge Cellars Description

PAVLOVA - ANISE - CREAMY

Railroad has proven to be limitless over the years. The challenge with this wine is defining it without confinement or absoluteness. We can discuss it in the context of history, the way the old Lehigh Valley Railroad meanders through a jungle of grapevines, and the way in which the site conveys a sort of workhorse temperament that one would find in those laboring over the rails back in the early 1900s. If we listen more closely to the tune reverberated in the glass, we must also give attention to the kaleidoscope of flavors and textures that this site can put forth with such ease, so much so that we would be hard-pressed to categorize its profile in one box.

For those who are in for the long haul, Railroad is the ideal companion. It’s like a childhood friendship that has stood the test of time, continues to evolve, teaches and surprises you, and above all is utterly dependable. Comparing notes from years past has given us an entire vocabulary with which to describe this wine. Each vintage has presented a new array of descriptors and style, yet sifting through these, one can find a thread of continuity, which we call the heartbeat of Railroad.

The very dry Railroad Riesling demonstrates how "bone dry" can be achieved on Seneca Lake. This wine will be a fantastic friend for food; its salinity will elevate many types of food, You'll see its mineral characters grow year after year.

91 POINTS - Shows nice range, with a mix of tangerine, lychee, yellow apple and mirabelle plum notes that are juicy and focused. Features a pleasant zip of bitterness that tightens up the finish.
