Wine Review: This pale straw-colored Gewurztraminer opens with a very attractive lychee and ripe pear bouquet. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied, balanced and approachable. The flavor profile is a underripe lychee with notes of chalky minerality and a hint of Anjou pear. The finish is dry and its flavors fade away nicely. This Gewurz would pair well with chicken lo-mein. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: Bright pale gold with aromas of cinnamon, nutmeg, lychee and rose petals. Rich, intense, luscious and well balanced with a dry, spicy finish. Perfectly pairs with Asian and fusion cuisines as well as spicy entrees. Also an ideal wine to pair with strong cheeses.
