Tasting - Fetzer Gewürztraminer

Name: Fetzer Gewürztraminer
Varietal: 81% Gewürztraminer, 19% Muscat
Region: Mendocino, CA
Country: United States
Year: 2010
Price: $9.00


Winery Review: Our Gewürztraminer is rich and complex. It is made with a traditional taste profile, so it is just a bit sweet with crisp acidity. There are aromas of tangerine, mango and orange spice, joined by pineapple baked pear and a bit of cinnamon. The wine is zesty with flavors of clove, orange and caramelized apples.

My Review: Initial smell was light and smelled of citrus. This initially made me concerned because I don't enjoy acidic wines. I was pleasantly surprised however that this wine was on the light side. It had a blast of melon and almost peach taste which I enjoyed. I would definitely drink this wine again.

Food: N/A
