Fragrant orange blossom, sweet orange zest and white flower aromas with wisps of clove and coriander. Crisp yet creamy flavors of blood orange, white pear, lychee and kiwi fruit with a drop of meyer lemon. Lush fruit flavors lead to a dry, vibrant finish that lasts for a long time. Wonderfully bright and fresh in its youth, this classic, dry Gewürztraminer will continue to develop richness up to fifteen years from vintage.

Winemaker Notes:

The 2009 growing season lent itself well to producing some of our finest wines to date. Springtime was pleasantly warm and mild as flowering progressed, with only calm winds coming through the Petaluma gap. The heat of the spring and early summer was comfortably average as the vines developed a strong canopy. We progressed through summer and early fall with moderate weather that was both a winegrower and winemaker’s dream.
