Winery Review: Seasoned. It's often called 'gavurtz' because it's hard to say and even harder to spell. This wine, though, is a secret weapon, great for taming spicy food or sipping on its own. Enjoy the honeyed apricot and peach flavors in the glass, and breathe deeply to capture the aromas of rose petals and honeysuckle. Lots of people love this wine, eve if they'll never spell it.
My Review: The smell of this wine was very pleasant, and I could definitely smell the honeysuckly and light fruit scents. I also could smell the lychee, which was not mentioned in the tasting description. The wine was light bodied with a light finish as well, and I really enjoyed it. I could taste everything I smelled. I paired this wine with some of my mom's spicy Pakistani cooking and it worked wonderfully, definitely toning the spices down and complementing them nicely.
