Columbia Winery Gewurtztraminer Columbia Valley 2005

Columbia Winery in Washington


This bottle seemed like a steal at BevMo for $7.99, with a lot of good reviews and 90 points from Wine Enthusiast, to back it.
Pouring it in the glass it has a pale straw color. The very first time smelling it I got a clean soap aroma on the nose, but after that it subdued, and I got apple, pear, white floral and a touch of elder berry. Tasting, it is fresh and lively on the palate with great balanced between acidity and the mellow sweetness. Apple, citrus and floral notes ends in a long, brilliant finish. This is a bottle I want more of.
$6.95 at http://www.wine-searcher.com/.
