Tasting- 2011 Fetzer Gewürztraminer Shaly Loam


Name- Fetzer Gewürztraminer Shaly Loam
Variety- 
Region- CA
Country- USA
Year- 2011
Price- 

Wine review: On the nose there's lychee, pear, clover honey & ripe red apple ~ On the palate it's medium bodied with nice acidity to balance the sweetness & there's flavours of clove, elderflower, pear & sweetened lime ~ A great value everyday Gewürztraminer.

My review:  The wine smelled like honeysuckle, traces of honeydew melon, and peach. There was a light and fruity smell that was very sweet and inviting. The taste was extremely acidic but balanced with a perfect citrus. The wine had a great body and also had a lingering mango flavor. I thoroughly enjoyed this wine. I would pair this wine with a white fish, such as tilapia. 

I tried this on it's own without food.
