Born in Denmark, Morten grew up on his family's wine estate in Côtes de Provence, France, and later took courses in oenology in Montpellier. One of his first jobs was at Chateau Cos d'Estournel in Bordeaux, and many years later, in 1998, he began working as head winemaker for Dr. Konstantin Frank Cellars in the Finger Lakes, where he discovered the enormous potential of the region's terroir and wines.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\" style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis \u003cstrong\u003eRiesling\u003c\/strong\u003e is made in a decidedly dry style, from fruit sourced from vineyards bordering Keuka and Seneca \u003cstrong\u003eLakes\u003c\/strong\u003e . These vineyards are sustainably farmed and quasi-organic were it not for the occasional need during wet and difficult vintages. The grapes are hand-picked, with whole-cluster pressing which adds a bit of chewiness. Fermentation and aging take place in stainless steel tanks, using only indigenous yeasts. The wine is then aged for 6 to 8 months on fine lees.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\" style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis is a dry, crisp and taut Riesling with bright aromas and flavors of \u003cstrong\u003ewhite flowers\u003c\/strong\u003e , \u003cstrong\u003elemon\u003c\/strong\u003e , \u003cstrong\u003elime\u003c\/strong\u003e , \u003cstrong\u003ewhite peach\u003c\/strong\u003e , \u003cstrong\u003etangy pineapple\u003c\/strong\u003e and a hint of \u003cstrong\u003esmoky stone\u003c\/strong\u003e .
