This off-dry Alsatian Gewurztraminer offers lovely notes of apricot preserves and honeydew and apple blossom. Some baking spice on the finish. Pair with cheeses and fruit-based desserts.

Reviews and Ratings

How can you can tell this is a Alsatian Gewurztraminer? This wine is pronounced on the nose with apricots, ripe melon, orange blossoms, citrus and cake spice. On the palate, the wine is generous with zesty acidity, fresh apricot, melon, lychee and rose petal. Excellent with strong cheeses like Munster or a pad Thai dish. - Community Wine Reviews
