Varietal: Gewürztraminer
Year: 2023
Winemaker Notes:
"This is a dry Gewürztraminer, with a delightful nose of white nectarine and apple blossom is followed by corresponding flavors and the addition of spice and tangerine. The finish is crisp and lingering with citrus, subtle ginger and a touch of honey. Try with a not-too-spicy Thai dish or Thanksgiving dinner. Also delightful with a turkey sandwich."
Vineyard Notes:
"The Gewürztraminer block on our estate in the Dry Creek Valley was planted using graft wood from our original 1979 block. The vines produce small clusters with incredibly concentrated flavors. Our location at the southern end of Dry Creek provides ample cool fog from our neighboring Russian River Valley. Harvest was early in the mornings of August 26th and 27th, 2020. Having the winery right on the estate property we have the luxury of delivering the grapes to the winery within minutes of harvest. From there, they are crushed, pressed and then fermented in stainless steel for 16 days between 53°F and 60°F. After fermentation, the wine is settled on the lees for 3 months and then bottled."
Alcohol: 14.5%
