In a recent New York Times column, wine critic Eric Asimov curated a list of 20 excellent summer wines under $20, emphasizing refreshment, balance, and versatility in hot weather without limiting choices to just whites and rosés. Among his standout selections is the Ravines Finger Lakes Dry Riesling, which he praises for its bone-dry profile and stony, mineral-driven character—highlighting Ravines as one of the finest producers in the Finger Lakes region.
