Hillside Gewürztraminer 2019
Naramata Bench, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaIf you had a shortlist of gewürztraminer wants, the Hillside version grown on the Naramata Bench would tick all the boxes. The nose is fragrant with a touch of Alsace, exotic fruits, tangerine in its fragrant spicing. The style is off-dry but with plenty of freshness to balance the litchi, tangerine, ripe pink grapefruit. Last year I called it a party-in-a-glass, and I stand by it again in 2019. Makes for a fun patio sipper. Sip this at a cool temperature or match up with a favourite curry or spicy South Asian dish.Tasted: 30 September 2020Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $21.00 | 750ml | winery online/direct, select private retailers, restaurants |
