Gundlach Bundschu Gewurztraminer 2019 |
Familiar aromas of star jasmine, lychee and honeysuckle are reminiscent of vintages past, and make this wine the epitome of Gundlach Bundschu comfort food. However, a refined palate with hints of Anjou pear & grapefruit, balanced with bright acidity tell us this isnt 1858 anymore. This varietal is usually the first harvested each year, turning a beautiful light red hue to let us know its natural spice is developing.
Each nuanced portion of the vineyard provides slightly different flavor profiles and those are identified and fermented separately. During winemaking, we freeze a small portion of the fruit to develop the mid-palate of the wine. Our Gewürztraminer may have grown up, but that crisp dry finish always feels like home.
