Finca Rio Negro Gewurztraminer 2013

75 cl

You don’t get many Gewurztraminers in Spain and certainly not around this winery as its closest neighbour (winery) is 70 kilometres away! Apparently, the owner loves Gewurztraminer & convinced the wine maker to try it out. Therefore, they trialled a small vineyard with Gewurztraminer vines and it was so successful they planted enough to sell commercially. Now when I tried last year’s vintage I wasn’t impressed enough to buy it and didn’t expect to buy it this year. However, the 2013 vintage is excellent and manages to balance the typical Gewurztraminer flavours without being so heavy or oily. It is a very fresh, example of Gewurztraminer & one which you could happily drink all night!
