Occasional wine note

We do not carry much Gewürztraminer in our inventory so what we do carry we want to be both delicious and solid representations of what a quality version can be. And if you only carry 1 or 2, at least 1 needs to be from Alsace. This one absolutely checks all boxes. Great ripe peach aromas and flavors nuanced by floral, citrus, and mineral notes. What a delicious specimen.

What experts say about this wine

James Suckling

Fabulous aromas of honeysuckle, lavender, stone and menthol. Full-bodied, lightly off dry, spicy and powerful. Very long and rich. What potential. Fabulous gewurz.

Wine Enthusiast

Notes of mandarin and rose petal are alluring on the nose, hovering above a peach compote core that also defines the the juicy palate. The purity of the peach note is sublime and uplifting, pervaded by freshness. Gentle sweetness makes this wine medium dry and boosts the fruit notes to perfection. Drink by 2050.
