2 2006 Otter Cove Dry Gewürztraminer
2 2007 Otter Cove Riesling
CT links above
The Gewürztraminer is quite minerally and truly dry. A lot of lemon on the mid-palate. The first time I tasted it I wasn’t sold on the dryness, but I’m starting to appreciate it more.
Prior to OC I’d only ever had sweet(er) Gewurtzes.
I bought the Otter Cove 3-pkin January.
These guys appear to be styled like the wines of Alsace. That would put them at peak drinking right about now. Looks like a must-have for anyone giving up reds for Lent.
Cork or Cap?
Cork.
I recommend the Gewürztraminer after buying the three pack in Jan.
I haven’t had a chance to try the Riesling or Chardonnay, so I can comment there. The Gewürztraminer had a really delicious fruity finish without being overly sweet. It really did taste like lychee and honeydew as described.
Two of my very favorite types of wine! And who can resist the furry little critter on the front?
“I will name him George, and I will hug him, and pet him, and squeeze him…until every last ounce is gone from the bottle…”
In for 2, wish like hell it could be 3.
I was all set to grab 2 of these, and then, with great disappointment, I realized that NH wasn’t on the list. What a sad way to start the day.

I would hope it’s not overly sweet. It had 0% RS and is dry-dry according to the description. I wish this had some sweetness to it because I am looking for some semi-sweet whites (which the riesling probably is). I have an abundance of dry minerally whites which I have realizes is definitely not my favorite style. Which is why I have to pass on this. Which I could get a four-pack of the Riesling instead.
Taking the plunge and in for one. I love both of these varietals can’t resist the cute otter. 
I’m really tempted by this offer but am currently waiting on 6 orders (18 bottles) from woot dating back to the 10th of this month, none of which have been shipped yet. That’s without placing a single order during this wootoff (and only 1 during the PS wootoff).
C’mon, woot! Gotta keep the juice flowing if you want people to keep ordering. It’s somehow so much easier to pass when I know that I’m waiting on that much wine already.
It’s going to take something special for me to order during this wootoff…

I agree. The shipping has been very slow lately. Thankfully I am only waiting for two from PS-off and one from yesterday. But you just reminded me I need to update my CT for it.
Edit: I just looked back and I am waiting on shipping on something that was a several days pre-PS-off. Those I think I get the short end on that stick because it is the BARRA dessert PS which was probably delivered to WCC at the same time the BARRA PS from the PS-off was.

I am waiting on the same 
. I am moving soon and thought/hoped this would be he by then. I ordered something directly from their winery last week and it is scheduled to beat th PS here. Oh. I am use to the “hurry up and wait” mentality. Recently I have been shipping things to my new neighbor
This went for sale RIGHT as I was falling asleep, and It was the only wine I wanted to buy. I loved these from the 3 pack and was hoping to pick up more.
Please Please Please sell these again?
