Character & context
Understanding Gewürztraminer
Gewürztraminer's perfume can suggest sweetness even when a wine is dry. Bottlings range through dry, off-dry and sweet styles, often with a broad texture and pronounced aroma. Alsace is a key reference, but site and producer matter. Check sweetness and alcohol to understand how the wine will behave with food.
