The grapes for the 2005 Volker Eisele Family Estate Gemini were co-fermented. The wine was barrel aged in 20% new French oak to provide aromas of vanilla and cloves. The wine is soft with rich flavors of melons, figs, and peaches. Semillon is a white wine that improves with bottle aging. Drink Gemini tomorrow or five years from now.
