Expert Reviews

88 Points | International Wine Cellar , July/August 1999

Aromatic smoked meat and spice aromas. Rich and ripe, with flavors similar to the aromas. Very good breadth and depth of fruit to buffer the 7 grams/liter sugar. Finishes ripe and rather full, with floral and rose petal notes. The best basic gewürztraminer here in 20 years, says Pierre.
