Finger Lakes Gewürztraminer 2013

Wine to go with Thanksgiving dinner #1. This time we hosted dinner with the in-laws. Gewurz with Thanksgiving may be a cliche, but that doesn't make it any less excellent. On the wine: I bottled this in March knowing that it had a little cabbage-y type reduction and that it perceived as a little hot. I believed in this wine. I knew it would come around. I was right!! 8 months later the wine is beautiful, with intense floral notes overlaying deep tropical aromatics. The alcohol no longer sticks out as bitter but instead gives a sense of richness. A good lesson in patience, demonstrating that an awkward youth can lead to remarkable things down the line. — 10 years ago
