More about this wine from Monterey County, CA
After growing up watching his father work in the wine industry, winemaker Kenny Likitprakong decided to make a wine designed to pair with the cuisine from his Thai heritage: enter, Banyan. Kenny considers himself a "hobo winemaker" since he doesn't actually own any vineyards himself, but leases them from other winemakers. Still, he is committed to organic and sustainable farming methods and the result is this kick-ass white.

We like to think of Gewürztraminer as the Glenda the Good Witch of grapes. You'll find flavors of white rose petal and citrus potpourri, your grandmother’s powdery perfume tasseled in salty ocean air and candied pineapple wedges. It's full-bodied, like cream, and has a low alcohol content, meaning you can sip on it all night long.
