- Dr. Konstantin Frank
- Varietal:
- Pinot Noir
- Region:
- USA > New York > Finger Lakes

Vinification:
The 2007 Pinot Noir was picked late to enhance flavor development. After crushing and destemming, the Pinot Noir was fermented in open-top fermenters to allow punch-downs and pump-overs. After a short maceration, the grapes were pressed and the juice was settled. After malolactic fermentation, the wine was aged in tanks, from which it was removed and blended prior to bottling.
Description:
Reflecting both its origins and vintages, this wine shows very good Pinot Noir character with vibrant raspberry and cherry fruit, soft tannins, read more...lively acidity and a long, clean finish. This Pinot Noir shows the potential that Pinot Noir holds in the Finger Lakes region. A very versatile wine, this Pinot Noir can both be paired with duck breast and other game dishes and with more delicate fish or poultry dishes.
Analysis:
Alcohol: 12.6 %
Acidity: .45 g/100 ml
pH: 3.7
Sugar: < 0.2 % (hide)

- Not sure if I'm crazy about this one. It's very light, almost effervescent, but it doesn't do anything. The flavor just sits on my tongue and doesn't go anywhere or blossom into anything. Every sip would be forgettable - although that's not much help given the flashing lights in my rear-view mirror.
