The winemaking process involves gentle pressing and cool fermentation to preserve the delicate flavors and aromas of the grapes. The resulting wine is a beautifully balanced and aromatic wine with a rich, full-bodied texture and a long, satisfying finish. It pairs perfectly with spicy Asian cuisine or can be enjoyed on its own as a refreshing aperitif.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

Aromas of rose petal, lychee, and honeycomb are complemented by flavors of ripe apricot, honeydew melon, and starfruit.The palate is creamy and soft, with a vibrant acidity that adds structure and balance to the wine. The finish is long and lingering, with hints of citrus and spice. Enjoy this Gewürztraminer now or cellar for the next few years.

ORIGINS

Winery: Banyan

Region: Central Coast California

The Central Coast of California is a wine lover's paradise, boasting a wide variety of climates, soils, and grape varieties. Located between San Francisco and Los Angeles, the Central Coast spans from Monterey County in the north to Santa Barbara County in the south. With its diverse topography and Mediterranean climate, the Central Coast is home to some of the most renowned wineries in the United States. The Central Coast has a long and storied history of winemaking, dating back to the mid-1800s. The first vineyards were planted in the Santa Clara Valley, and by the late 1800s, the region was producing some of the finest wines in the country. The region's reputation for quality wines was further solidified in the early 1989, when the Santa Clara Valley was declared among the first American Viticultural Area (AVA) in the United States.
