Wine Details
Price:
$16.00 per bottle
Description:
Particularly when made dry, this varietal needs meticulous farming to access the complete range of flavors. That means the finest quality grapes are not inexpensive. Alisos Vineyard insists on growing a distinctive Gewürztraminer and we would not have it any other way. Low yields in the hilly terrain provide intense fruit of exemplary character. We applaud them for doing the right thing. The wine, produced in the Alsatian style, showcases the juxtaposition of elegance and bold fruit flavors we prefer. Though bone dry, the high volume of exotic fruit character suggests otherwise. Generous, classic flavors of lychee nut, jasmine and pear along with mineral notes are backed by bright acidity. The wine was barrel fermented and aged nine months in seasoned French oak barrels adding another dimension that enriches the palate and lengthens the finish.
