Angel's Gate - Gewürztraminer

Origin: Ontario
Price: $13.95
Vintage: 2007
Date drunk: February 18th, 2010



d.: It tastes like water at first.

g.: The first sip was a little rough, but the second was really magical. It tastes like flowers and cayenne pepper, if that makes any sense. And fairy dust, probably. Either way, it's going to take a hell of a wine to get me through Star Trek V.

d.: I think this might be a hell of a wine. It has a warm comforting blannng to it. Not a bad blannng, like so many others, but a good blannng.

g.: If only it were about.... 40% stronger. Then I feel Shatner's directorial efforts would seem much more magnificent. HOWEVER, this is really good. I'm a fan. It's a well-balanced Gewürztraminer, as far as I can tell. Just enough spicy and sweet to make all the floral flavours stand out. Why do I like drinking flowers so much? Because I do.

d.: A time when all you could drink was perfume?

g.: There's alcohol in that, right? Then probably.
