Sineann "The Precious" Late Harvest Gewurztraminer" Columbia Gorge 05 375 ml: Golden in color with delicious aromas of honey and apple, this Late Harvest Gew?rztraminer made in the vin-santo style is rich in the mouth with complex jammy peach marmalade, white peppercorn and nutmeg flavors.

These grapes were harvested at 39% residual sugar, air dried and bottled at a whopping 25% residual sugar make this a lip-smacking honey pot of a dessert wine. Never fear, there's enough acid to make this a well balanced wine considering the high sugar content. Although none of the walnut flavor often associated with a vin santo are present, the labor intensive production techniques borrowed from the Italians make this wine worthy of it's 'Precious' namesake.

Try the "Precious" with a fruit tart spiked with cinnamon, over nectarines and ice cream or with a rich creamy blue cheese or as dessert all by itself. - ms

Detailed Info, Previous Vintage Notes, Reviews:

Made from dried fruit that is then pressed to remove a tiny yield of "nectar". A Vin Santo style dessert wine, it's truly "precious". Super intense floral and fruit notes, remarkable and memorable. A welcome new offering after his incredible Late Harvest Viognier. Shipping in April, 2006.
