California.,.. Lodi..Doc Harris Ranch, Lockford, District 11, Foothill area. The tremendously broad range of bouquets, flavors, textures and impressions that pinot noir can produce sometimes confuses tasters. In the broadest terms, the wine tends to be of light to medium body with an aroma reminiscent of black cherry, raspberry or currant. The grape's color when young, often compared to that of garnet, is often much lighter than that of other red wines. This is because pinot noir has relatively small amounts of red pigment due to its thin skin.</description><link>http://www.gemvintners.com/product/86246145-7743-40bc-a65c-c9c1ccc4c947.aspx?aid=0</link><imagelink>http://www.gemvintners.com/</imagelink><price>$124.99</price></item><item><title>GEM MicroWinery Zinfandel 6.3L</title><description>WINERY GRADE CONCENTRATE -- Makes 6 gallons of finished wine.

Woodbridge, California. District 11, Kramer Ranch, Delta area. This is a winemaker’s dream wine because of its natural affinity to oak. There are so many combinations of different types of oak with so many different toasting styles to be had. This makes for an incredible number of different Chardonnays to choose from and this allows winemakers to become very creative. Our Chardonnay, when "naked”, (without oak), shows ripe pear fruit on the nose and it is extraordinarily well balanced. We recommend D-47 yeast, and oaking at 50 grams American medium yeast for the primary and 50 grams French medium in the secondary. Enjoy!

District 12, Merced Region, Bar Ranch. The Viognier grape was once a little used variety best known in Condrieu, in the northern Rhone Valley of southwestern France. It is experiencing a resurgence in popularity as more of it is being planted in California and elsewhere in the world. It makes fruity wines of medium body. Stone fruit aromas (peach and apricot) are often found in wines made from Viognier along with a bit of spice. Depending on the producer, the wine can range from exquisite to ordinary. Also, depending on the producer's style, the wine matches well with 'Asian Infusion' dishes as well as many foods that are often served with Chardonnay. Not recommending any oak treatment.</description><link>http://www.gemvintners.com/product/bb658edf-f9e2-4a8e-984a-27441adffdd9.aspx?aid=0</link><imagelink>http://www.gemvintners.com/</imagelink><price>$119.99</price></item><item><title>US Elite Gewurztraminer 6.4L</title><description>GEWURZTRAMINER Van Dieman Ranch Block 6, Lodi District 11, Lodi, California

Sometimes referred to as Gewürz or Traminer, is a white wine grape variety that performs best in cooler climates. It is known for its spicy characteristics. The characteristic of the wine, rather than any specific spice, is that there is a strong smell of lychees on the bouquet. This characteristic aroma means that Gewürztraminer is classified as an aromatic wine grape. As such it is one of the few wines that is suitable to be enjoyed with curry and other Asian foods. It also goes well with Munster cheese, and fleshy, fatty (oily) wild game. It is believed to be related to Viognier, another aromatic grape. It is not uncommon to notice some spritzig (fine bubbles on the inside of the glass).</description><link>http://www.gemvintners.com/product/31352fe3-8fdd-4c32-8cf2-79e48bbd1349.aspx?aid=0</link><imagelink>http://www.gemvintners.com/</imagelink><price>$119.99</price></item><item><title>US Elite Semillion 6.4L</title><description>Harris Ranch, Lockford Area, Foothills, District 11 Semillon ripens earlier in the season than most grapes and is less likely to be damaged by rains or frost. It produces wines that are full flavored rich and aromatic. Semillon is most often blended with other varieties (especially Sauvignon Blanc) to take advantage of the strengths of each variety. Semillon is one of the three approved varieties (Semillon, Sauvignon Blanc and Muscadelle) for making white wines in the Bordeaux region of France. Together with Sauvignon Blanc, it is the base for the great sweet wines of Sauternes and Barsac where it is affected by Botrytis cinerea. Whether in the sweet wines or in dryer styles, Semillon has the ability to age for a very long time</description><link>http://www.gemvintners.com/product/7e2ac785-556b-4a96-80d6-b74812dfa8d5.aspx?aid=0</link><imagelink>http://www.gemvintners.com/</imagelink><price>$119.99</price></item><item><title>US Elite Muscat 6.4L</title><description>MUSCATLockford, California.. District 11 Moralex Farm. Its ancient roots from the Mediterranean basin are brought to life upon discovering the first aromas of this gorgeous floral variety.
