2020 Dry Gewürztraminer
We founded Claiborne & Churchill in 1983 with the goal of producing
small lots of aromatic, “Alsatian-style” dry white wines, and the first
wine we made was a Dry Gewürztraminer. Over the past 38 years
this wine, with its distinctive and compelling aromatics, continues
to be our most popular white wine. This is a dynamic wine drinking
experience from start to finish.
The 2020 Dry Gewürztraminer (our first white wine released from
that vintage) opens with classic aromas of lychee and tropical fruit,
with a hint of rose petals and resin. On the palate it is dry and
smooth, with a bit of viscosity and a long, well-textured finish. The
spring and summer months are a perfect time to enjoy a refreshing
wine like this. Try it with a spicy Asian dish like Thai Curry or Kung
Pao Chicken, or with a simple Pizza Bianca!
