Among the twenty five Finger Lakes wines that scored exceptional ratings in the same magazine issue, Chateau Frank 2006 Blanc de Blancs was the sole sparkling wine to score such a high rating. This sparkling wine was made in the traditional Blanc de Blancs style and shows crisp acidity accompanied by rich pear, honeysuckle, lemon and ginger aromas with a soft vanilla finish.

Chateau Frank is the sister winery to Dr. Konstantin Frank’s Vinifera Wine Cellars and was started by Dr. Frank’s son, Willy.

Chateau Frank’s award-winning sparkling wines have been served at the White House, New York’s Governor’s Mansion and more.
