2007 Monterey County Gewürztraminer

The Hess Small Block Series Gewürztraminer from the 2007 vintage is a delightful expression of this aromatic varietal, hailing from the picturesque Monterey County. This exquisite white wine showcases a medium-bodied profile that is both refreshing and vibrant. With a crisp acidity that invigorates the palate, it is perfectly balanced by its prominent fruit intensity, featuring enticing notes of ripe stone fruit, lychee, and subtle floral undertones. The wine is dry, exhibiting a clean finish that invites another sip. This well-crafted Gewürztraminer reflects the unique terroir of Monterey County, making it a lovely option for both casual gatherings and sophisticated pairings.

Central Coast
Central Coast

California's Central Coast might be a bit quieter than Napa or Sonoma to the north, but this lesser-known region produces many world-class wines. Enjoying incredible terroir along its vast 280-mile stretch—from San Francisco Bay to Santa Barbara—Central Coast wines are increasingly in demand. Its position between the Pacific Coast Ranges and the Southern Coast Ranges is key to its quality, with many cool-climate AVAs offering elegant Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Syrah and Merlot. In the hotter parts of the Central Coast, away from the coastal fogs and cold mountain slopes, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Syrah, Grenache and Mourvèdre are exceptional.
