Machmer Gewurztraminer 2010 (about $15)


About the Wine:  Gewurztraminer can be sweet, dry, or medium depending on how late it is harvested.  Spatlese wines are almost invariably on the sweeter side.

About THIS Wine:  It is hay colored in the glass with a clear rim.  Lemon is strong on the nose with prominent mineral notes.  Sweet citrus defines a slightly acidic palate that fades into a mild orange finish.

Drinking This Wine:  This is a good patio pounder for anyone who likes something sweet.

Overall Impression:  This is a good wine but fifteen dollars is a bit steep for a simple, sweet wine.  This one is good, but overpriced.
