Fetzer Gewurztraminer Valley Oaks

Vineyards along California™s coast dial up the layered aromas in our intriguing Gewürztraminer. This vintage brought cooler temperatures, lengthening the growing season and giving the fruit plenty of time on the vine to develop bright acidity and complex flavors. Fragrant grapes from cooler regions, including Monterey County, were pressed as whole berries, then slowly fermented at cool temperatures in stainless steel tanks. The notable absence of oak makes this wine exceedingly fresh, while partial lees contact during aging lends an unmistakable richness to the mouthfeel.
