Description:
We made A Noble Blend in the spirit of Edelzwicker or Gentil , the traditional Germanic-varietal blend of the Alsace region of France. The literal translation of Edelzwicker is “a noble blend” – Noble, also happens to be Heidi's family name. Our original intent in choosing to produce this proprietary blend was our knowledge that many of the oldest plantings in this valley were Germanic varietals which have proven to be extremely successful in this climate. Much of the 2005 A Noble Blend originates from 17 year old plantings and these mature vines tend to be naturally lower in yield and produce more complex and intensely flavoured grapes. Blending allows us to utilize the different characteristics of each variety (or of the same variety from different sitings) in order to help us achieve natural balance as well as adding greater complexity to the wine. The 2005 Noble Blend is a blend of Gewürztraminer, Riesling, Pinot Blanc, Kerner, Muscat , Pinot Auxerrois and Ehernfelser.
