Chateau Ste. Michelle Gewurztraminer 2014
A fan favorite, this Gewuerztraminer is an enjoyable wine with exuberant fruit and clove spice. This is a lush style of Gewuerztraminer with a lot of floral character, yet it still maintains the grape's natural crisp character. Try this with Thai food or any cuisine with a little "bite" to it.
