WineDiva's Review

Honeyed, quaffer, approachable.
The 2019 Character White is an aromatic composition of 1/3 Gewurztraminer and 2/3 Pinot Gris from Hester Creek's estate vineyards and select growers.
Always an approachable quaff, this year it offers orange blossom and peach, yellow pears and sweet citrus aromas, exotic spice and rose water. The palate shows generous fruit and zippy citrus. Fresh, easy and off-dry it's a wine to pair with calamari, fresh oysters, seared scallops and roasted chicken, turkey, coconut curries, glazed ham or sweet potato fries.


 
Recommended Pairings
Spicy Food, Patio Sippers, White Meat Chicken/Pork
