Dr. Konstantin Frank Winery
Philosophy
Dr. Konstantin Frank's 1960s demonstration that European vinifera varieties could survive Finger Lakes winters established the entire modern fine wine category for the northeastern USA. The Frank family estate on Keuka Lake continues the pioneering tradition — producing Riesling, Gewurztraminer, Pinot Gris, and Cabernet Franc of outstanding quality. The Château Frank sparkling (méthode traditionnelle) is among the USA's finest traditional-method sparkling wines. A living monument to American wine history.
