Lula
Gewürztraminer
The Lula Cellars Dry Gewürztraminer for 2014 has a gorgeous nose - honeysuckle with sweet peaches and pears. That floral aspect is dominant, by the way. On the palate, full frontal fruitity and a mild pepper component play together quite nicely. The acidity keeps the sweetness in check, which is a big job. This wine, despite "Dry" on the label, is extremely sweet. The spiciness is interesting and opens up additional pairing possibilities. This is a natch for Thai food or spicy tacos.
