"Top 100 Value Brands"
Dr. Konstantin Frank Winery is included among Wine & Spirits Magazine's list of "Top 100 Value Brands" in the June 2017 issue. "To make well-priced white wines in New York's Finger Lakes, it helps to have the oldest vinifera vines in the region. That's how Konstantin Frank manages to consistently put out exceptional whites at reasonable prices, like the tight, limey 2015 Dry Riesling at $15. Look also for Frank's bright, clean grüner veltliner or the rkatsiteli, always herbaceous and invigorating" - Wine & Spirits

"5 Can't Miss Wines"
Fortune Magazine recently made a list of 5 “can’t miss wines” and included the Dr. Frank Grüner Veltliner among their favorites. “New York’s Finger Lakes often gets overlooked by oenophiles, but the region puts out some amazing Rieslings. Dr Frank’s is the winery that put the Finger Lake on the map for many wine drinkers and is still one of the top vintners in the area. The Riesling is good, but the $22 Veltliner, an Austrian grape that flourishes in upstate New York, is better. It’s akin to a Sauvignon Blanc with a dry citrus mouthfeel. And it’s wonderful with chicken or seafood.”

"Best U.S. Wine Destinations For Wine Lovers"
Dr. Konstantin Frank Winery was mentioned in an April 2017 article by CBS News. "“About two million years ago, in a landscape sculpted by slow moving glacial sheets of ice, 11 long and narrow lakes were carved out. In upstate New York, the shores of these clear and deep inland lakes presented a cold weather opportunity for cultivation of “Vitis vinifera” European grape varietals. This attracted a mid-20th century viticulturist immigrant, Dr. Konstantin Frank, who used methods studied in his native Ukraine to plant on the west side of Keuka Lake. Vineyards throughout Finger Lakes AVA’s 120 wineries are often compared to those in Germany’s Rhine River region, where Riesling is also king. It’s a classic European grape that, shielded by the lake shores, withstands cold and snowy winters, producing award-winning sweet and dry wines. Other notable Finger Lakes varieties are Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Cabernet Franc Gewürztraminer, and sparkling wines.”

10 American Wines to be Thankful For
Wine Enthusiast notes the Dr. Frank Gewurztraminer as a great wine for Thanksgiving.

"Today, the winery's experience shows, especially with temperamental varieties like riesling. The Konstantin Frank rieslings have a tactile sense of aliveness-a kind of kinetic edginess that makes them super refreshing. They are also delicate, and laced with spiciness. But more than any other quality, they demonstrate fruity concentration without weightiness" -MacNeil

Where to Eat and Drink in the Finger Lakes
"Overlooking Keuka lake and off the main wine route, you'll stumble upon one of the oldest wineries in the region. It was founded by Dr. Konstantin Frank, who ignited the "Vinifera Revolution" in the 1960s after discovering that cold climate wasn't a barrier to growing European grape varieties and that the problem was actually the lack of proper rootstock. In 1962, he founded Vinifera Wine Cellars and quickly became famous for spectacular Rieslings. Today, the winery is still family run, by Konstantin's grandson, Frederick Frank and his daughter Meaghan Frank."

Frank's biggest triumph came when his 1961 Riesling Trockenbeerenauslese sweet wine was served at the White House.
