VINEYARD NOTES
Salmon Run is named after the majestic landlocked salmon that swim through the deep waters of Keuka Lake in the Finger Lakes wine region of New York. For over 25 years, Salmon Run wines embody the experience of the Finger Lakes producing everyday wines for everyday enjoyment.
VINEYARD
Grapes for Salmon Run wines come from local Finger Lakes growers and from younger Dr. Konstantin Frank estate vines.
WINEMAKING
Immediately after harvest, the grapes are de-stemmed and pressed independently. The juice is fermented at low temperatures in stainless steel to preserve the more delicate flavors. The wine is aged in stainless steel until the following Spring, blended, and bottled without oak aging.
