Dr. Konstantin Frank 2006 Dry Riesling (Finger Lakes)
-
$18
Crisp acidity and minerality make this wine a great food cohort and attractive to anyone who favors a drier, more delicate style of Riesling. Apple, pear and spice come together in layers, and while refreshing, the wine also contains a lovely creaminess on the palate. A fruity, lingering aftertaste seals the deal.

Dr. Konstantin Frank 2009 Semi Dry Riesling (Finger Lakes)
-
$15
Another top pick from Finger Lakes legend, Dr. Konstantin Frank, this luscious honey-laced Riesling is fragrant with yellow freesias and ripe, juicy stonefruit. Off-dry in style with a spicy, orange rind-infused palate, bright acidity carries through on a long finish that ends on a sultry, astringent, black tea note.

Dr. Konstantin Frank 2009 Dry Riesling (Finger Lakes)

Luscious aromas of ripe tangerine, honey and white flowers meld into a rich, dark petrol note on this elegant, dry Riesling. The palate is sunny and bright with ripe orange, melon and guava flavors, but hints of fresh herbs and a lime pith astringency keep all the fruity sweetness remarkably balanced.
