2021 Desert Hills Gewurztraminer

Aromatic, and crisp, with a beautiful nose of candied ginger, rose water and stone fruit. The gravel loam soil is apparent, with distinct chalky minerality notes on the off dry palate. Zero malolactic fermentation, makes for bright acidity that balances the sweetness perfectly.
Our 2021 Gewürztraminer is sourced from our Terrace Vineyard located in Kaleden. The fruit was picked early during harvest. Hand picked and carefully sorted before being destemmed. The grapes were pressed and racked to stainless steel. Fermentation proceeded steadily using a combination of indigenous and cultivated yeast. 10% barrel fermented Chardonnay was added for texture and depth. Malolactic fermentation was halted to preserve acidity. The wine then spent 5 months to mature. Enjoy Now!
