$14, 4 stars, 89 points, finger lakes, gewurtzraminer, New York, WSET
Pale lemon in the glass this Gewurztraminer has a pronounced nose with flavors of rose petals, melon and lychee. On the palate it is a touch sweet and rounded with lychee flavors and a slight astringency. The mid palate gives me some honey to go along with the strong lychee flavors. The wine is full-bodied and the finish carries on the floral and tropical fruit notes for a short to medium length finish. 89 points for me and for $14 this is a really good introduction to this varietal that gets 4 stars. At 13% alcohol it’s an easy quaffer for an afternoon by the pool. I would pair it with spicy dishes all day long. Drink till 2026. Salut….
