Mt. Boucherie Estate Winery 2018 Gewurztraminer - BC VQA
Availability: Direct from winery here
Cost: $17.99 + taxes
Alcohol: 13.4%
Date Tasted: June 27th, 2019
Tasting Notes: Produced with fruit sourced from both the winery's Cawston and Golden Mile Bench vineyards, this Gewurztraminer presents a crisper, dryer and leaner expression of the Alsatian grape (especially in contrast with its sister-winery release from Rust Wine Co). Here the near off-dry balance is lively and mineral-y with a slightly effervescent mouthfeel and a focus more on orchard fruits; apples, pears, apricots and peaches.
Namesake spice (gewurz) is also more present on the floral nose and the mouthwatering, citrus peel-kissed finish. Pair with a spicy fish curry or try a hard cheese platter. Ready to go now. Drink now-2021.
