New York

**New York** — A cool-climate wine region in the north-eastern United States, and one of the country's older winegrowing areas. Its key districts are the Finger Lakes, Long Island and the Hudson River Valley. **Wines & grapes** — The Finger Lakes are celebrated for Riesling, together with other aromatic whites and Pinot Noir, while maritime Long Island focuses on Bordeaux grapes such as Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Native and hybrid varieties are grown too. **Character** — Deep lakes and coastal waters moderate the cold, letting grapes ripen through a short, cool season. The whites are marked by bright acidity and precision. **Good to know** — Finger Lakes Riesling is widely rated among America's finest.
