Penguin Bay, Finger Lakes (New York) Gewurztraminer 2016

Sep 26, 2017

By Rich Cook

A bracingly dry Gewürztraminer with a twist – there’s 25% Traminette in the mix.  The result is a crisp, stony wine that’s got subtle flavors of stone fruit and lychee, and a light foxy note that’s very pleasant.  Oysters, please!  A Platinum award winner at the 2017 Sommelier Challenge International Wine & Spirits Competition.
