winemaker's notes:

This Gewürztraminer has a gold colour with a perfumed nose of lychee fruits and spices. The wine is rich, intense, and luscious. The finish is dry and spicy. Textbook, ripe and unctuous yet dry Gewürztraminer from Alsace, with a great balance, it will age easily 5 years and more.

Gewürztraminer can be drunk as an aperitif and is a great companion to smoked fish. This wine pairs exceptionally well with spicy dishes, Chinese cuisine and curries found in Indian cuisine.

I would buy this wine again

Had this wine at a blind tasting. Loved it, so bought two more. It's a very typical wine of the region and extremely refreshing.

Always a pleasing wine. You can count on it to always be a great wine for gifting.

A Customer - Washington
Delicious! So floral and delicate. A beauiful wine. Layers of scent like rose petals. Spicy yet incredibly smooth finish.

Kosher wine
Kosher
A Kosher wine begins like every other - as grapes on a vine. Once they reach the winery for crushing, the wine is under strict rabbinal supervision.

Screw Cap wine
Screw Cap
Many studies report and winemakers agree that screw caps protect wine better and preserve its flavor more effectively than cork. More importantly, screw caps eliminate cork taint caused by TCA, a compound which develops in a small percentage of corks and ruins the taste of wine.
