HOBBS TO MAKE MOSEL-STYLE RIESLING IN USA
FLX ::: so my new neighbor Paul Hobbs will be making Riesling
Finger Lakes wine industry rises nationally
So it’s great to be on the cutting edge of wine-making in the FLX … We are attracting the very best from around the world…
So Paul’s Is supposed to awaken the wine advocate … Lol…

The story of the Finger Lakes hasn’t been read by everyone, though.Frederick Frank, president and CEO of Dr. Konstantin Frank Vinifera Wine Cellars overlooking Keuka Lake, said Hobbs’ coming to this region may finally make some holdouts, such as influential wine evaluator Robert Parker Jr., take notice of the Finger Lakes.
“I don’t think he’s reviewed a Finger Lakes wine in many a year,” Frank said.
“For the region to really become a world-class wine region, we need to do the hard work of marketing and selling the wines beyond New York state. It does take a lot of effort and hard work.”
— Frederick Frank, president/CEO
But in a few years, after Hobbs plants and harvests and makes wine from his initial Finger Lakes grapes, “He’ll probably be presenting wines to Mr. Parker and hopefully that will enlighten him to what’s going on in the Finger Lakes.”The Hobbs Effect has yet to be determined on the Finger Lakes, but as Trezise’s “overnight success” theory suggests, many efforts helped bring the Finger Lakes winery to this point.
The FLX is the last frontier as Hermann Weimer and I often talked about before he sold …
