2022 The Vice "Brooklynites 3.0" Orange of Gewürztraminer, Los Carneros, CA
Let's get right to the orange part -no it's not wine from oranges; The orange hue color of this wine comes from the skin contact and skin maceration during fermentation of our gewürztraminer grapes; the same process that gives red wine its color, tannins and also contributes to its flavor. This wine was fermented to complete dryness, which means there was no residual sugar left in the wine. Yet, the bouquet is fragrant with sweet notes of mandarin, guava, lychee and passion fruit Fresh and clean on the palate, medium bodied and striking balance of acidity with bright tropical fruit notes. The Vice is a “family wine” like many others in the creation, but a family-made wine that aspires to finally be for an entire family. Cross generational, embracing and refined, The Vice celebrates and aspires for diversity by crafting a select variation of styles.
