Dr. Frank Reserve Gewürztraminer 2009
VINIFICATION:
The grapes were handpicked, destemmed and set for 48 hours on cool skin contact. They were then gently pressed, cold settled and fermented for three months at a very low temperature with special Gewürztraminer yeast to preserve the maximum amount of flavors. After three months the fermentation was stopped to retain a fair amount of it’s own residual sugars. The wine was stabilized, filtered and bottled in early May 2010. DESCRIPTION:
This '09 Gewürztraminer Reserve is a spectacular example of a complex, fruity and minerally wine unique to our Finger Lakes terrior. Rich flavors preceded by a nose of spiced fruit and potpourri. Flavors of pomegranate, lychee and honey with a surprising finish of pepper and fruit. Serve with honey glazed ham, tempura chicken and rich desserts of pumpkin cheesecake, apple strudel or baklava.
