Natalie's Score: 90/100

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.

Gewurztraminer food pairings: mildly spiced Thai, Indian cuisine, curries, Asian dishes.

Reviews and Ratings

Jane Staples - Certified Sommelier rated this wine as 91/100 with the following review:

This Gewurtztraminer from Alsace, France is a beauty! Its inviting delicate nose with rose petals and lychee is followed by a rich perfumed palate with more rose, lychee and a touch of lemon zest. Good acidity and a subtle rose petal finish.
This robust, mouth-filling French white wine is made from Vieilles Vignes -- old vine -- Gewurztraminer grapes. The 2013 vintage offers a good balance of spice, fruit and acidity. The nose is well developed with fresh cut almond and rosewater. - Community Wine Reviews

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
