As fun to drink as it is to say, Gewurztraminer is a French/German export now grown around the world, including a lot of cold weather regions of the United States like New York and Washington. Gewurztraminer is characterized by some contradictions: it's dry yet sweet on the tongue; it's spicy but also pairs perfectly with spicy foods. Gewurztraminer is sometimes naturally effervescent.
