Crisp acidity and not too sweet. Notes of strawberry and raspberry with hints of rosemary and thyme to cut the sweetness. Pairs well with BBQ, chicken wings, or Greek salad. — 3 years ago
So light and lovely! I’m a fan.
Tasting notes of green apple, honeysuckle, lychee, rose petal.
A California-fresh spin on the unique Gewürztraminer grape, the 2019 vintage has notes of tropical fruit and white flowers.
Kenny Likitprakong, the winemaking partner who created our Brethren of the Road brand, is a wanderlust-driven, self-professed “hobo winemaker” whose stint in France sparked his allegiance to minimalist, non-interventionist methods. This lively Gewürztraminer is no exception. A grape that originally hails from Italy (not Germany, surprisingly), Gewürtz is known for producing a highly aromatic wine with exuberant fruit, floral and spice notes. The grapes for this bottling were sourced from the cool climate of Monterey and fermented in stainless steel to achieve a clean, pure, early-drinking wine. Soft and light on the palate, it’s a dry wine balanced with vibrant minerality and a little spice. — 5 years ago

I pulled this to compare to the Azimuth.
Nice mix of cranberry, cherry, plum, and blueberry. Full body disguised by the lively fresh acidity. Good fruit intensity and sense of purity. Supple tannins. Long smooth finish.
Templeton Gap is in general considered the coolest sub-appellation, and Willow Creek sits immediately N/NW of Templeton Gap with higher elevation. I think the composition of the varieties has more to do with the differences of the 2 bottles than geographic. More Grenache in this bottle. — 3 years ago
