Dr. Konstantin Frank Riesling Dry Finger Lakes

Finger Lakes AVA, USA

Bone-dry Riesling from estate and purchased Finger Lakes fruit. Slate and shale mineral character, concentrated citrus, white peach, and petrol notes with age. Benchmark for American dry Riesling; impeccable acid structure for ageing.

Pairing intelligence

• starter: Finger Lakes Riesling mineral slate character and citrus acidity are classic with cold-smoked lake trout
• main: Classic Riesling-pork affinity; citrus acidity cuts the fat while mineral backbone grounds the sweetness of apple
• main: Dry Riesling's aromatic complexity and residual mineral depth navigate the layered herbaceous broth beautifully
