DESCRIPTION:
The Dry Riesling has a classic pale straw color with a crisp green hue. The nose shows typical Keuka Lake minerality with fresh lemon citrus and apple with an intriguing blossom aroma. The palate shows wonderful tight acid that balances out the fruity residual sugar enhancing the floral and bringing out the bright tangerine flavors. The palate also displays the slatey mineral characteristics that typify Dr. Frank's Rieslings. Serve with all fin fish and shell fish.
VINIFICATION:
The fruit was harvested by hand during the cool hours of the morning and cold pressed. The juice was then cold settled and fermented at low temperatures with specially selected German wine yeasts. A long slow fermentation enhances the fruit aromatics. The fermentation was arrested just prior to dryness to balance the grape's natural acidity.
PAIRING:
Serve with all fin fish and shell fish. This wine has great ageing potential.

Chardonnay is an international wine.
We used a single grape variety and we will get a fresh and aromatic wine with good body and structured.
Vinification of the grapes from the new vines grown on trellises in Loreto, planted in 2011, started in 2014.
These grapes are fragrant and undergo gentle pressing.
The must goes into cryomaceration and then into temperature controlled fermentation.
The wine ages in stainless steel vats until February or March and then bottled.
Some notes: bright straw yellow. Elegant hints of tropical fruit. In the mouth it’s full and fresh. Goes well with spaghetti with pachino tomatoes and shrimps.
