Gewürztraminer is one of the few grape varieties where the name hints at its distinctive fragrance—literally meaning "spicy traminer." Known for its aromatic intensity, this grape unfolds a tapestry of exotic lychee, rose petal, and ginger notes, often enveloped in a luscious, sometimes off-dry texture. Thriving in cooler regions like Alsace, Germany, and parts of the New World, Gewürztraminer wines can range from delicate to bold, making them a captivating choice for adventurous palates.
