Wine & Spirits Top 100

Why to buy: When we at Gilt Taste hosted our 1 year anniversary party – a sun-drenched Brooklyn backyard barbeque – we ordered a case of this New York state wine to wash down our pulled pork tacos and Mexican grilled corn on the cob. Bright in acidity, blooming with florals and with a backbone of cool minerality, this is a bottle that just screams refreshment for a Wet Hot American Summer.

The backstory:Gewürztraminer thrives in cool climates like Alsace, Germany, and the Finger Lakes in New York State. Known for its distinctly floral, spicy nose and surprisingly dry palate, we love it with almost anything on the grill, especially the sweet, sour and fiery notes in Asian barbeque.

Varietals: 100% Gewürztraminer
Nose: A flowery bouquet with hints of peach and spice
Palate: Lush notes of melon with a hint of coriander, dry finish
Alcohol: 12.5%
Appellation: Finger Lakes, New York

We Love This With

Gewurztraminer is light enough for white meat but can stand up to almost all types of sauces and spices. This grilled pork chop recipe is the perfect pairing for this wine. The subtle herbal hint from the rosemary and peppercorns and the sweet, cooked stone fruit match perfectly with the hints of peach and spice in this wine.
