About This Wine

Corsage

Gewürztraminer

Born from a 200-year history in the foothills of the Alps, this classic, pink-skinned grape varietal shines in California’s fog-shrouded Russian River Valley. The area is known for producing exceptional Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, so the fact that a farmer has dedicated this much land to Gewürztraminer says something. Aromatic with low acidity, the Corsage is light enough to pair with all types of food. Warm temperatures and a long growing season made this 2018 vintage sing with notes of jasmine, peach, and apricot. Uncork the Corsage over dinner with friends or sip with cheese and charcuterie. Judges at the 2019 Harvest Challenge couldn't get enough either: it took home 94 Points and a Gold medal at the competition.

Wine Region

Russian River Valley

Prized for its elegant Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, Sonoma's Russian River Valley is one of California's premier AVAs for cool-climate wines. Blessed with the Petaluma Gap—a break in the coastal mountains where chill, foggy air blows in from the Pacific—the valley also benefits from the effects of the Russian River itself. This draws cool Pacific Ocean air inland and creates blanketing fogs that veil the vineyards throughout the chilly mornings. The result is one of the state's longest and coolest growing seasons. Bracing acidity and complex flavors characterize wines from this region, which also includes excellent sparklers made from Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.
