Dr. Konstantin Frank Dry Riesling
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.
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.
This wine has great ageing potential.
