HARVEST MOON Sparkling Dry Gewurtztraminer, Russian River, Sonoma

Complementary ground shipping on 4 or more bottles * USE CODE VINO4. 

WHY WE LOVE IT:

  • Crisp, dry and delicious like Champagne
  • Estate grown grapes crafted from 4 tiny acres
  • Small, artisan producer committed to sustainability on the family farm

WINEMAKER: Randy Pitts, a grapegrower and winemaker on the family vineyard for decades. He calls himself a 'wine shepherd." We call him just plain awesome.


WHAT WE TASTED: Sweet florals, white rose petal aroma on the nose followed by fresh cut, crisp green and spicy red apple, along with white rose, honeysuckle, summer peach. And a fine creamy mousse finish.  Gewürztraminer generally benefits from dishes with more than a touch of sweetness and heat.


AVA DESIGNATED: Russian River AVA, Sonoma


WHAT WE PAIRED:

  • Thai red duck curry
  • Stinky cheese such as Muenster 
  • Foie gras or rich duck liver pâté with brioche toast
  • Apple-based desserts such as crumble or streusel cakes with cinnamon 

PERSONALITY:  Randy practices on-time harvesting--a once common winegrowing approach that picks the grapes earlier rather than later keeping berry structure intact. Future wine tastes juicy with lower sugar! 


TECHNICAL: 

  • Tiny 4 acres of vines
  • Low 12.5% alcohol for juicy, not hot, enjoyment
  • Stainless fermentation, only 175 cases made
