Most highly noted in Alsace, this variety produces very aromatic wines,
often described as spicy. Its complex bouquet can range from grapey muskiness
to pepper spice. Originally from the Pfalz region in Germany, the Gewurztraminer
was introduced into Alsace after 1871. It has been successfully transplanted
as far afield as South Africa and California, where its characteristics
are softer.
