Michael Brneton, wine writer for City Pulse in Lansing, spent some time with a couple of the LPVA winemakers, Charlie Edson from Bel Lago and Leel Lute from Black star Farms. In his article, he describes some of his favorites, like Bel Lago 2007 Semi-Dry Riesling, which won Best Pacific Rim White Wine, at the Pacific Rim International Wine Competition. He confirms that the tropical fruit flavors, soft, viscous mouth feel, tangy acidity on the back palate, and long, lingering finish! And says, “What a testament to the ever evolving quality of Leelanau Peninsula grape growing and wine making, and international recognition of that fact!”
Read the praise that he gave all the wines that he tasted at Bel Lago and Black Star Farms From Leelanau with love at City Pulse.
