April 4, 2020 - Didn’t realize this was almost exactly a year since the last bottle.
All the notes are classic gw as a year ago, although it is a bit more rounded and the fruit is slightly more generous than last year. Really enjoyable! -

June 11, 2019 - A great example of dry gewurztraminer. Has the varietal's characteristic floral and spice notes, without the sweetness of most domestic examples.

April 24, 2019 - Green tinged straw and clear. A: rose water and lychee and guava. F: Pear, lemon, Bright acid, minerally cut, moderate length. Really solid GW and a nice value too.
Compared to other GW in AV, this sits favorably amongst the crowd. I’d put it up there with Lazy Creek and Witching Stick, my other two current favorites. Navarro is also very good, but these 3 have an extra kick of freshness that is enjoyable for me. -

January 13, 2019 - Floral, slightly gassy ala reisling, a hint of spice, fruit. Nothing outstanding, but very balanced nose. Bright acidity, which paired wonderfully with grilled halloumi cheese.

January 13, 2019 - Perfect with our Turkey breast. Light, clean, citrus and light peach. Taste smooth with longer finish that goes good with food.
