The Osmote family is Ben, Brittnie and Mia, plus all the friends and family who have helped us along the way.  Ben Riccardi is both winemaker and business manager. Born in the Finger Lakes, he now lives on the southern end of Seneca Lake.  His work experiences include notably Willams Selyem in California, Craggy Range in New Zealand, and City Winery New York in Manhattan.

Believing it better to trust nature and the process, Ben takes a relaxed approach in the winery.  It’s not laziness or a recklessly cavalier attitude towards the craft, but instead Ben’s conviction in the potential of the Finger Lakes terroir.  He has worked around the globe in France, Australia, New Zealand, Chile, and California, collecting insights abroad, all to understand the unique greatness of these New York Finger Lakes.

Ben has a technical winemaking degree from Cornell University and understands the science of wine, but the raw material here begs for patience, not a technocratic winemaker.  He seeks a gentler touch then, in order to develop texture alongside the bright acids of these light, ethereal wines.
