2024 Winemakers White Reserve
Gewürztraminer & Riesling | Columbia Valley
The 2024 White Blend is a radiant expression of Washington’s high‑desert vineyards, where Gewürztraminer and Riesling ripen under long summer light and cool, mountain‑cooled nights. This vintage captures the best of both varietals: Gewürztraminer brings its signature floral intensity and exotic spice, while Riesling contributes crisp acidity, citrus lift, and a clean mineral backbone.
In the glass, the wine opens with aromas of lychee, white peach, honeysuckle, and citrus blossom, accented by a whisper of ginger. The palate is bright and juicy — a blend of stone fruit, pear, and Meyer lemon — carried by vibrant acidity and a silky mid‑palate. A cool stainless‑steel fermentation preserves purity and freshness, allowing the wine’s natural aromatics to shine. The finish is refreshing, lightly sweet in impression, and beautifully balanced.
