Tasting notes and reviews for gewürztraminer wines.
Gewürztraminer
Gewürztraminer is a fragrant white wine grape variety that performs best in cooler climates. It is often referred to as Gewürz in English, and it is written Gewurztraminer in English and French. Gewürztraminer is a white wine grape with a pink to red skin color, as opposed to the blue to black-skinned varieties that are generally referred to as “red wine grapes.” The grape has a high natural sugar content, and the wines are white and off-dry, with a flamboyant lychee bouquet. Lychees and Gewürztraminer have the same fragrance compounds. Roses, passion fruit, and floral notes can be found in dry Gewürztraminers. It’s not rare to see any spritz.
