12/10/2007 - Filippo wrote: 80 pointsSlightly corked. Totally unbalanced, with the 15% alcohol stealing the stage and killing the otherwise nice fruit aromas. Overly aggressive aftertaste. |

7/4/2020 - Filippo Likes this wine: 93 pointsBrilliant wine. Blueberries and a rush of different ripe berries. A hint of rosemary and vanilla. A touch of cedar wood. And a great QPR. |

4/12/2009 - Filippo wrote: 95 pointsWow!! Although a Late Vintage, this is a full throttle sweet wine and not off-dry. It really explodes in your mouth with candied/ripe apricot, orange, honey, caramel, vanilla, all supported by a balanced acidity. Amazing! |

2003 Marcel Deiss HuebuhlAlsace White Blend more |
12/25/2008 - Filippo wrote: 93 pointsBorderline between off-dry and sweet. It really did magic with both duck pate and goat cheese + pear jam. A match made in heaven. And the Huebuhl takes most credit thanks to its fine balance between candied oranges, honey, ripe white fruits, apricots.....a new nuance at each sip. It has some subtle noble rot contribution. A winner! |

2002 Zind-Humbrecht Gewurztraminer Clos WindsbuhlAlsace Gewürztraminer more |
10/30/2011 - Filippo wrote: 94 pointsBeautiful wine which has evolved gracefully. Typical Gewurtz notes accompanied by apricot, lemoc curd, peaches, custard-vanilla, all harmoniously together with a medium-long finish. Perfect match with medium-to-full bodied cheeses and, my favourite, pumpkin-amaretto ravioli with nutmer-butter sauce!! |

4/30/2009 - Filippo wrote: 95 pointsWOW!!! This is very serious stuff!!! Amazing how all the ripe fruits (apricots, oranges, peaches...) and aromas (vanilla, caramel, spices, cinnamon...) complement each other in such a grand way, and with a freshness background that cleans up your mouth after each sip!! |
