Dr. Konstantin Frank's 2024 Dry Riesling comes from the Finger Lakes, where the glacially-carved lakes moderate temperature swings and allow Riesling to develop both ripeness and acidity. This is a still wine at 12% alcohol, bottled under screw cap, built on fruit from multiple lake microclimates in the region.
The wine opens with bright green apple and lime sherbet notes. On the palate it's medium-bodied and streamlined, with a clean, crisp profile driven by bracing acidity that keeps the modest residual sugar in check. The result is a wine that tastes dry and refreshing, with no heaviness or cloying sweetness, and enough structure to pair easily with food or drink on its own.

Bottled under screw cap, Frank's 2024 Dry Riesling does have eight grams per liter of residual sugar, largely balanced by a total acidity of 8.2 grams per liter. Classic green apple and lime sherbet aromas mark the nose, while the medium-bodied wine (12% alcohol) is streamlined, crisp and clean. It's a blend of fruit from Seneca and Keuka Lakes, including some grower fruit.
