Tasting- "Teutonic"

•Name: Teutonic 
•Variety: Gerwurztraminer Blend (80% Gerwurztraminer, 20% Pinot Noir
•Region: Williamette Valley
•Country: United States 
•Year: 2016
•Price: $20
•Shop/wine critic/winery review (From klwines.com):Almost dark rosé in color, this wine has incredible lift and energy, with a bright acidity balanced with a pleasantly weighty textural component. Dry and refreshing, with tantalizing minerality, this wine has a very soft tannin and is incredibly easy to drink during any occasion.
•Your review: This wine came off with lots of fruit, namely strawberry and raspberries. I ranked it a 7/10, though I would still buy it again. There was a slight taste of an old pennie, but was a light enough wine that I found it enjoyable overall. It seemed well balanced, and while it was light, it still had enough "umph" behind it.
