Wine geeks love rieslings from the Finger Lakes in upstate New York, the ideal climate for this German grape. The 2013 Dr. Konstantin Frank Dry Riesling captures the essence of a riesling from France’s Alsace region. It’s dry, mineral driven and medium bodied with citrus notes and a finish that lasts until your next bite of trout.
