Grower & Winemaker's Notes

This fruit comes from the south block of our 33 year-old Gewurztraminer vineyard on the “Home Ranch” Estate where it was picked early so to preserve the very crisp natural acidity as well as the fresh green and red citrus notes. For a dry Sparkling, it exhibits an amazing floral aroma while still exhibiting the fine earthy notes from sitting surlees for over 14 months.  This unique Sparkling is crafted in the Methode Champagne.

Tasting Notes

With our 6th year in the bottle, this super unique approach to Gewurztraminer promises to impress once again. Dry, delicious and unique, our '08 Sparkling Gewurz billows tiny, tiny bubbles of crisp green melon, citrus aromas, and wonderful flavors of creamy, and clean citrus and tart summer melon. Dedicated to my Sparkling Mom, Virginia.
