Expert Reviews
  • Background
    Gewurztraminer is a variety of grape that produces a wine with exquisite spice and complexity. The Finger Lakes region, with its moderate summers and sunny, brisk harvest weather, is an ideal place to grow Gewurztraminer that is intense and expressive. Delicate floral aromas reminiscent of orange blossom and honeysuckle combined with flavors of ripe watermelon and lychee balance a palate that is rich, creamy and elegant. It is a perfect complement to the robust flavors of spicy seafood and oriental cuisine.
