Vintage
2007, what a year! The 2007 vintage was marked by numerous days of frightening weather. But, just when things seemed lost, a warm Indian summer came to the rescue and produced
a small crop of fully ripe, incredibly intense fruit. Amazing vintage!
Vineyards
The Scheid Viento Vineyard is situated on a gradual east-facing slope on the western side of the Salinas Valley at the foot of the Santa Lucia Mountain range. The soil is composed of well-draining, calcareous shale. The climate is cold and windy. Since our first vintage in 1984, we have been consistently impressed with the quality of Gewürztraminer we source from Monterey County.
Winemaking
Three quarters of the fruit was whole-cluster pressed, chilled overnight and racked clean the next morning. We crushed and de-stemmed the remaining 25% of fruit and left the juice in contact with the skins for 12-16 hours. This fraction of juice was loaded with perfume and exotic flavors. The two lots were combined and fermented together at 52-56 degrees for a little more than months.
Tasting Notes
Gewürztraminer represents the pinnacle of exotic aromatics in fine wine. It possesses flowers, tropical fruits, spices, lychee nuts and a whole slew of other wild scents. Our 2007 ‘Gewurz’ veers towards fresh ginger, rose hips and pineapple. The mouth is vibrant and balanced with fine acidity and threshold sweetness that adds body and really allows the fruit to ‘pop.’ Drink early and often!
