Columbia Crest Two Vines Gewurztraminer
| Description: | Tasting Notes:. \"Classic Gewürztraminer aromas of spice, lycee and rose petals are followed by flavors of pink grapefruit and white peach. Subtle sweetness and bright acidity marry seamlessly, creating a balanced, refreshing finish. -Ray Einberger, Winemaker. Growing Season:. The mild winter allowed the vines to remain in good shape throughout the cold months. In May, one to two weeks before bloom, temperatures spiked to 100 degrees for about a week. The heat spike led to a smaller canopy which allowed for more light penetration, and contributed to good flavor development in the fruit. The hot temperatures also contributed to smaller berries with concentrated flavors. During fruit set the weather conditions were favorable and the summer saw mild to average temperatures. Veraison started 10 days ahead of average. At the beginning of harvest, temperatures were moderate, and weather was ideal for harvest. Region Description. The Columbia Valley American Viticultural Area (ava) is the largest in the state of Washington. It includes the Yakima Valley, Red Mountain, Walla Walla, and Horse Heaven Hill AVAs within its boundaries. |
