Featherstone Gewurztraminer 2011, Twenty Mile Bench, Ontario V.Q.A., Canada: This is an extraordinary wine, and perhaps the best Canadian gewurztraminer that I've tasted. It's luscious with an incredible viscous texture that wraps around your tongue. Lovely aromas of rose petal and lychee. Double yum. Drink: 2012-2014. 64592 12.50% D 750 mL  $19.95 Score: 93/100.

Gray Monk Estate Winery Pinot Blanc 2013, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia Bc V.Q.A., Canada: Honeysuckle and apple blossom on the nose of this ultra lovely white wine from one of BC's best producers. Crisp and mouth-watering yet there's a touch of balancing natural fruit sweetness, like white apricot. The grapes for this BC white wine are grown on the sun-drenched vineyards above Lake Okanagan just north of Kelowna. Crisp, clean and vibrant with attractive white peach notes. Perfect for dishes with a light glaze or chutney. Drink: 2015-2018. 321612 13.30% M 750 mL  $19.95 Score: 91/100. August 22, 2015 Top Rated White Wine. Voluptuous Veal Wine Full Review

Cono Sur Visión, Single Vineyard Gewürztraminer 2010, Las Colmenas, Casablanca Valley, Chile: Vintages Wine Panel: Pale straw colour leads to a very attractive, youthful, varietally classic nose: red grapefruit, sweet peach, rosewater, white pepper and a touch of lychee. Dry, plenty of acidity to go with the robust flavours and bring exceptional balance. The finish is long and relatively intense. My note: I honestly don’t know how this winery produces wines this tasty and distinctive at these prices. Here’s another they’ve batted out of the park. Classic gewurz with rose petal, spices, lychee and lovely goodness. The ultimate wine for Asian, curries and Indian take-out. I’m hungry now.

Hunawihr Kuhlmann-Platz Gewurztraminer 2013, Alsace A.C., France: Beautifully made (and consumed!) Bursting with aromas of exotic rose petal, lychee and baking spices. Medium sweet but balanced with lots of acidity. Perfect with curries, Asian dishes and a get-you-out-of-your-rut aperitif. Finishes with rosewater notes. Pair with medium curries and spicy dishes.
