Eastern Daylight Off Dry Riesling 2024 750ml

Eastern Daylight is a New York label from the Finger Lakes, and this off-dry Riesling comes from Seneca Lake. The range also includes a bone-dry Riesling and a red blend of Blaufränkisch and Cabernet Franc, so the brand covers both ends of the sweetness scale.

It's a single-varietal Riesling from Seneca Lake, made in an off-dry style with a light touch of sweetness. At 10% alcohol, it sits well below most table wines, which makes it easy to pour through a long meal or a warm afternoon.

In the glass it's bright and fruity, and lively acidity keeps that hint of sugar in check, so it finishes fresh rather than sweet.

Against Pacific Rim Sweet Riesling, Eastern Daylight is off-dry rather than fully sweet and comes from the Finger Lakes; for a Riesling with only a hint of sugar, choose Eastern Daylight.

Serve it well chilled. Off-dry Riesling with bright acidity is a classic match for spicy Thai or Sichuan dishes, sushi, roast pork and soft cheeses, and it also works on its own as an aperitif.
