Pipers Brook Gewürztraminer

Gewürztraminer too often lacks acid structure and sophistication, but this wine is wanting for neither, securely ranking among the best in the country. From vines coming up for their fortieth birthday next year, this is a gewürz of finely poised structure, great length and admirable energy and drive. Gentle aromas of delicate rose water, lychee and musk are signature varietal traits. The palate harmonises lively, lemon-like Pipers Brook acidity of finely poised structure with gentle fruit sweetness. Great value at $19 at Dan’s.
