Dr. Konstantin Frank Winery, one of the most iconic and pioneering wineries in the Finger Lakes region, is pleased to announce the appointment of Sarah Gummoe as Head Winemaker.

The price of this wine puts it up there with many top American reds, but it’s justified.

Groovy Grüner Veltliner once seemed too weird to succeed, but it is finally becoming the toast of the town in vineyards and on tables across the world after years of obscurity. What gives? Kathleen Willcox investigates.

To drink this wine is to taste American wine history. Dr. Konstantin Frank pioneered cool-climate viticulture in New York, and this bottling continues that legacy. Sourced from a single plot on the winery’s Seneca Lake estate, this Riesling delivers crunchy green apple, ripe melon, and lime leaf notes with a stony minerality. The palate is serene, featuring medium fruit depth and supportive acidity.

Valentine’s Day calls for indulgence—but at Dr. Konstantin Frank Winery, indulgence comes with intention.
On Valentine’s Day Weekend, we invite you to experience Valentine’s Day in the Tasting Room with a Chocolate & Wine Pairing Weekend designed to surprise, delight, and challenge expectations of what chocolate pairings can be.
