ADDITIONAL INFO:

Geisenheim (Guy-Zen-Hi-M) originates from Germany – specifically from The Geisenheim Institute. We grow two clones on the property, Geisenheim 322 and Geisenheim 318.  318 is a crossing of Riesling and Chancellor. Typically the Geisenheim variety has an aromatic profile of mineral, grapefruit, peach and hints of herbs. A light and lively variety that produces dry to sweet table wines.

WINEMAKERS NOTES:
This wine was fermented for 11 days on the grape skins. The profile is fun and really peach forward, the fuzzy peach aromas comes out in this varietal like crazy! There are also notes of golden tropical fruit – this all carries to the palate, bone dry at 3g/L residual sugar
