France, Alsace AOC
Gewürztraminer
Description
Gewurztraminer is a grape variety with decadent, exotic aromas of rose petal and lychee. This wine is delightfully perfumed and aromatic, but also crisp, refreshing and dry on the palate, so not at all cloying despite the richness of the flavours. Paul Blanck makes a top-class Gewurztraminer that will offer great pleasure to fans of the variety.
