Prospero Finger Lakes Riesling: Despite the reputation for upstate New York White Wines being sweet, this riesling is done in a dry style similar to Alsatian rieslings. Yet it still retains its crisp punch of lemon zest, apple and mineral flavors.
Region: Finger Lakes, N.Y. Price: $15.
Goes with: Asian foods, spicy dishes or any richly sauced dishes that can be countered with this wines bright acidity.
Why I chose it: A lot of people shy away from both New York and riesling wines for their sweet tendencies. Yet when you try something bright and fresh, like this wine, it can open your eyes..and palate..to a whole new dimension in wine styles.
