Description:

Pale straw in colour with a nicely lifted bouquet of crisp green apples, anjou pear, lemon curd, lychee, and candied ginger. The dry, medium bodied palate is fresh and round, echoing the nose with crunchy flavours of crab apple, white peach, lychee, spice and subtle notes of perfume that mingle on the mineral driven finish.

Perfect Pairing:

Best served with toes in the sand while watching the sun set. Drinks well with lightly spiced foods – think fish tacos with peach salsa, ginger and mango stilton, mild thai green curry, or Vietnamese takeout – loaded with lemongrass!

Additional Information:

Serve at 7 - 10⁰ C

Production Notes

Vineyard Notes

The grapes used to make our Single Vineyard Gewürztraminer are self-rooted and came from our Orchard Block vineyard at Elliott Road which was originally planted in 1999. This special clone produces small, low yielding cluster with thicker ‘waxy’ skinned fruit. This adds a unique creamy texture. The juice was cold fermented in 100% stainless steel tanks to preserve the acidity and aromatics of the wine. We currently have a total of 65 acres of vineyards in West Kelowna, all within 10 kilometers of our winery, along with 7 acres planted onsite.
