Characteristics of the Berries and Taste of Gewürztraminer

The grapes of Gewürztraminer consist of small to medium-sized berries with a pinkish skin that gives the wine a delicate color hue. The variety ripens early and has a naturally higher content of aromatic substances. In taste and aroma, there are pronounced notes of roses, lychee, spices, citrus, and sometimes subtle honey nuances. Dry versions are intense and spicy, while off-dry and sweet styles highlight its exotic fragrances.

How to Serve Gewürztraminer?

Gewürztraminer pairs wonderfully with spicy dishes, poultry, light desserts, or strong cheeses. Dry versions complement fish and dishes with herbal characteristics nicely. Serve the wine chilled to enhance its complex aroma and smooth structure.
