Shimmering silver-gold in color, on the nose there are intense mineral aromas of crushed gravel, wet shale and limestone, combined with notes of green and golden apple, peach, white flower and lemon oil. An intense burst of acidity hits the palate, followed by flavors of lime, grapefruit pith and ripe orange and apricot, all leading to a lengthy, mineral- focused finish.
Empire Estate Description
Empire Estate is a collaboration between Thomas Pastuszak, wine director of The Nomad Hotel in Manhattan and winemaker Kelby Russell. Crafted in a dry style, the majority of the fruit is sourced from vineyards around Seneca Lake - on the east side, there is more shale- and clay-rich sites in the area of Hector and Lodi, and on the west side, there are more gravel- and loam-rich sites near Dundee and Dresden. The wine was fermented in stainless steel.
