BOUNDARY BREAKS GEWÜRZTRAMINER

Gewürztraminer is a “cool climate” grape variety. That means the fruit retains its acidity through a long growing season all the way through harvest. The result is a rich, aromatic, food-friendly wine.

We harvest the fruit for this wine earlier than our Rieslings. That is because we want to ensure that grapes have enough acidity to produce a refreshing, clean bright wine. At this earlier level of ripening, the fruit has more minerality and spice and is less floral than fruit harvested later in the season. As a result, our Gewürztraminer is much more subtle and earthy than Gewürztraminers that exhibit strong notes of rose petals and perfume.
