The 2008 Washington Hills "Paradise Peak" Gewurztraminer (Washington state, $10) leads off with a fresh, lightly floral scent and opens on the tongue with flavors of spice, white flowers and lots of fresh pear, with undertones of tangerine and grapefruit. There's even a hint of coconut, which kicks in briefly before the satisfyingly clean finish. It's slightly sweet up front, but the impression overall is of light and lively crispness, making it both a good palate cleanser between bites of say, ham, and a fine choice for an aperitif. Available at Total Wine & More.
