This wine comes from an Organic Certified vineyard in Mendocino's cool growing region of Potter Valley. The rugged location is the key to the great acidity and balance in this Gewurztraminer.  

Alexander Valley Vineyards is located in the heart of Sonoma County’s Alexander Valley on the historic property settled in the 1840s by valley namesake, Cyrus Alexander. The Wetzel Family purchased the original homestead in 1962, continuing a tradition of family farming on the site. From the beginning they treasured the spot they call home and took steps to preserve it for future generations.

Wine Notes

This is an aromatic wine with an enticing floral nose and initial aromas of grapefruit, citrus, tropical lychee, melon, rose and pear. The 2019 Gewürz is a drier style with an appealing minerality and bright flavors. This is a silky, rich wine with spicy flavors of apple, pear, grapefruit and nice acid balance on the finish. Pair with Asian cuisine, turkey, pork and soup. 13.2% Alc.
