The term "Gewurztraminer" refers to a variety of grapes used to make wine, as well as the wine itself. Gewurztraminer grapes produce a full-bodied, rich wine with an aromatic bouquet and exotic fruity undertones.http://www.wineaccess.com/wine/grape/gewurztraminer/ http://www.terroir-france.com/region/alsace_gewurzt.htm
Serving Information
Depending on the brand, variety and season in which the grapes were harvested, Gewurztraminer wine may range from dry to sweet. Some of the sweeter varieties may be served as dessert wines. The wine should be chilled to about 50 degrees Fahrenheit before serving. Gewurztraminer is one of the few wines that pairs well with spicy dishes, such as those flavored with curry or hot peppers. It also goes well with fatty meats, such as goose and pork as well as most fruit and cheese.http://www.winepros.org/wine101/grape_profiles/gewurz.htm http://www.terroir-france.com/region/alsace_gewurzt.htm
