Gewürztraminer

by Madison

A young child sommelier carefully holding a small bunch of Gewürztraminer grapes, studying them with interest.

William: Hello grape friends! It’s your pals William and Madison, and today we’ve got an adventure with a fun-to-say grape: Gewürztraminer.

Madison: Absolutely, William. When we observe Gewürztraminer, it has a unique color among white wines, kind of like the deeper yellow of a ripe pineapple. It reminds me of the sunsets we watch at Garden City beach.

William: That’s a great comparison, Madison! Now, when it comes to smells, Gewürztraminer is like walking into a flower shop. You’ll often smell roses, along with other exotic aromas like lychee, pineapple, and even spices like ginger or clove. It’s like a magical potion from Zelda.

Madison: Yes, and just like the different books we read, Gewürztraminer can taste different based on where it grows. Generally, it can be quite full and rich, often with a bit of sweetness. In cooler climates it’s known to be more balanced and crisp.

William: Gewürztraminer is an old grape with a funny name, originating from the Alsace region of France. It’s as ancient and exciting as a treasure hunt in an Indiana Jones movie!

Madison: Gewürztraminer is usually used to create aromatic single varietal wines. Some of these wines can be dry, but often they’re off-dry or sweet. They’re like the different kinds of candies in a candy store—each one unique and full of flavor!

William: That’s spot-on, Madison! And remember, like the strategies we learn in our video games or the different challenges we face in our Lego contests, every fact about wine helps us to understand it more, even though we can’t taste it yet.

Madison: That’s right, William. It’s all part of the adventure!

William & Madison: That’s it for our exploration of Gewürztraminer. Stay curious and keep exploring with us at KidSomm.com. See you next time for more grape fun!

Madison – Age 9

Hi!  My name is Madison and I started learning about wine when my mom and dad started taking courses.  Even though I can’t drink wine yet, I can still learn a ton and it’s fun to smell the different wines and see if I can guess what type of grape it is. I also like sports, cooking & dogs.

William – Age 12

Hello, my name is William. I have started taking an interest in wine when my parents started taking wine classes for a business my dad is opening.  My goal is to be able to review wines properly, just by sight and smell. I look forward to sharing my knowledge with you.
