We went on a weekday getaway to the Finger Lakes, and we talked to a few of the winemakers up there (simply the best reason to go up this time of year, they aren't crowded at all, and the winemakers aren't busy, other than bottling 2013 whites).
There was a recurring theme: Native Yeasts. Several of the better wineries are beginning to experiment with Native yeasts. I guess there is a eastern strain that has some positive traits. We had 4 different wines made exclusively with native yeast, and they were remarkable.
Anyone know more about native yeasts? Just curious to see if anyone's tried.
