Description:
I have such appreciation for the superb quality of White Hills Gewürztraminer that I elected to make a Limited Release blend with this vintage. White Hills Gewürztraminer portrays the classic lychee flavors and spice characters of the varietal. Its warm notes of ginger, nutmeg and allspice make it the quintessential Gewürztraminer. These characteristics are only enhanced and enriched when the juice is given special treatment in barrels. Midway through a cold fermentation, I moved this wine from a stainless steel tank to one-year old French oak barrels. In the barrels, it fermented to dryness, without any residual sugar. This gave the wine a richer texture, and highlighted aromas of vanilla and jasmine. Before bottling, I blended in a slight percentage of Chardonnay for richer body, and to complement the sweet and spicy character of the Gewürztraminer.
