2012 Odinstal Auxerrois

We shared this 2012 Odinstall Auxerrois with my sister-in-law who prepared a delicious meal of salmon over guacamole with arugula. We sat outdoors in 80 degree warmth! There was a nice bouquet that came from the wine and it tasted of lemon and peaches. A little more fruity than I thought an Auxerrois would be.
We are growing Auxerrois so it was interesting to be able to taste the expression of this variety that comes from Germany. Auxerrois is not a very well known variety but we feel that it is a good pairing with the foods in our area of southeastern Connecticut, which includes fish and oysters. The flavor of Auxerrois can be very lemony and acidic which makes for a perfect pairing with seafood. I have to be honest, we still like the first Auxerrois that we ever had that came from Clos des Rochers, made in Luxembourg.
