This dry Gewürztraminer has a slight floral aroma with a balance of spicy flavors and a lengthy finish. It is a very light and approachable Gewürztraminer that pairs well with food like curry.
Our grape yields from our own estate vineyards in 2018 were much lower than expected, and on September 25th of that year, our winemaker realized that she was going to have the tank space to bring in more fruit. She jumped online to the Cornell Cooperative Extension’s Grape & Wine Classified website and was excited to find that Damiani Wine Cellars was selling 4 tons of Gewürztraminer from Sunrise Hill Vineyard on Cayuga Lake. After a few emails and a vineyard visit, the deal was quickly sealed, which was a good thing as a few days later the gorgeous grapes were harvested and delivered.
