2004 Gewurztraminer Columbia Valley ($9). Easy to like, with bright nectarine flavors and aromas laced with sweet, toasty oak and warm spices. Think Thai noodles! Anything from Pad Thai to a tangle of spicy, curry noodles. Ready to drink now. (Bargain Wine 06/05)

2003 Gewurztraminer Columbia Valley ($9). Smooth lychee, orange blossom, and ripe citrus flavors and aromas are pretty and light, with sweet vanilla on the off-dry finish. Ready to drink now. A tantalizing pairing with Thai curries or our Shrimp and Black Bean Nachos! (Weekend Wine, 08/04)

2000 Gewurztraminer Columbia Valley ($8). Less impressed with this wine – particularly because it is missing the spicy aromas and flavors the varietal should show. Mostly featuring soft pear and citrus fruit, without much else going on. Ready to drink now. (ETFOFW, 02/02)

Pacific Rim 2007 Gewurztraminer America ($11). Loved it for its bright, aromatic, mouthwatering tangerine, nectarine and smooth melon fruit. On a crisp frame with a generous finish. Sourced from Washington and Oregon. Ready to drink now. I paired it with a spicy Kung Pao Chicken takeout. Delish! (2008-09-09) Locate this wine online or in your area.
