Maryhill Gewurtaminer, Columbia Valley, USA

Sweet and spicy, this easygoing, tasting room wine has plenty of sugar, but keeps its varietal character with Gewurzy notes of spice and flower. It leans to the soft side, but it’s clean and persistent, and would be a good choice with very spicy Asian fusion dishes.——P.G.(12/31/2008)—— 86

Though Washington is rarely recognized for its Gewurztraminers, the grape does exceptionally well here, and Celilo in particular has become a treasured hunting ground for winemakers specializing in the grape. This one is a gem: spicy and off-dry, it expands across the palate with authority and precision. Rather than sweetly floral, it leans toward flavors that are sweetly grassy, but lets pretty rose petal highlights fill in the back of the palate.——P.G.(12/1/2007)—— 89
