2007 Gewurztraminer

This wine offers exotic aromas of flowers and spice. At 1.2% residual sugar, the wine is finished with a touch of sweetness but well-balanced with crisp acidity. Enjoy it as an aperitif or a variety of foods including Asian-style foods.

What is perhaps most surprising about this wine is how well it ages. Conventional thinking always suggests consuming this style of wine while it is still young and fruity. We are now reaping the rewards of having kept a good selection of now well-aged vintages of Gewurz. With five and even 10 years of age these wines have developed into remarkably complex, flavor-filled wines.
