About Domaine Weinbach
Domaine Weinbach was established in 1610 by the Capuchin monks who also gave their name to the domaine's most prized vineyard, Clos des Capucins. The estate itself got the name Weinbach--which literally translates to "wine brook"--from a little stream that trickles through the property.

93 Points | International Wine Cellar , July/August 2007
($71) Pale yellow. Expressive aromas of ginger and cured meats. Densely packed, sweet and tactile, with extravagant flavors of mirabelle, spices and flowers. Offers a near-perfect combination of sugars and acids and a dusty impression of extract. Finishes with excellent length and an absence of phenolic roughness. Incidentally, this is the only gewurztraminer cuvee at Weinbach where the 2004 appears to be in the same class as the '05.
