Lucien Albrecht 2014 Réserve Gewurztraminer (Alsace)

Country: France / Réserve
Variety: Gewürztraminer Alsace
Winery: Lucien Albrecht / Alsace

Rounded notions of baked apple, juicy orange and roses play on a midweight palate that has a pleasantly bitter phenolic edge. Tangerine zest creates tension and balance in equal measure. This is just off dry and an intriguing counterpart to many spicy dishes and ripe, soft cheeses.
