Castel Grisch

Finger Lakes ice wines and dry Rieslings from New York's cool heartland.

Castel Grisch operates in the Finger Lakes region of New York, where cool-climate conditions favor aromatic white varietals and ice wines. The winery's portfolio centers on Riesling and Vidal Blanc, grapes that thrive in the region's glacial soils and temperature swings. The Riesling Ice represents the winery's work with frozen-harvest techniques, a method that concentrates sugars and acidity in the berries. The Vidal Blanc Ice follows similar principles, capturing the intensity that late-season picking affords. A dry Johannisberg Riesling rounds out the core range, offering the varietal's characteristic balance of fruit and mineral character. Wine Enthusiast has rated these expressions, reflecting their technical execution and regional typicity.
