"There’s a simple nose of tangy orange marmalade on this medium-gold colored wine. Similar flavors follow through on the palate with zingy lime-sherbet notes. Sweet but racy enough to compensate. Pleasant and easy-drinking, with moderate length." Wine Enthusiast Magazine March 2011

Vineyard & Winemaking Notes

The grapes are sourced from the world famous Pfalz wine region. Gewurztraminer grapes thrive in the chalk and limestone soils that permeate throughout the Pfalz, and the warm sunny days help contribute to its delicate sweetness. The grapes are hand selected and cold fermented to capture the true flavors.
