2009 Charles Baur Gewurztraminer PfersigbergAlsace Grand Cru Gewürztraminer more |
7/13/2014 - ozziewine Likes this wine: 100 pointsYes, I know, 100? But it is for me. I like a Gewurztraminer that smells and tastes like roses, so this is, for me, the best Gewurz I've ever had. I do not get the "hops" comments of earlier reviews. It's complex, floral, viscous, rose petals, and the ultimate most technical compliment - "dee-lish"! I have two bottles of the 2011 vintage and am anxious to see how they taste. This is a 5 (of 5) on the ozzie wine rating scale - it's a wine I'd drink again and again...and again...I'd go out of my way (and did!) to buy more...a memorable and fabulous drinking experience. A classic! |

3/26/2020 - myofin Likes this wine: 94 pointsDrank this a day after tasting Baur 2016 Gewurtz Pfresigberg Grand Cru. The wines had similar taste profiles, and both were marked as medium sweet on the label. I thought Eichberg was leaner, spicier, more focused. Both wines had that Alsatian viscosity and silkiness, a fragrant honeyed nose, and gorgeous lychee flavor. I give a slight nod to Eichberg because of the extra focus. |

3/24/2020 - myofin Likes this wine: 93 pointsFragrant, slightly oily, unctuous, lychee flavored, silky golden liquid will slide languorously across your palate. Sweet, but not cloying. Delicious. I would rate it higher if it had just a touch more acidity. |

10/6/2011 - TannicBeast wrote: 91 pointsClear, medium minus lemon. The nose is glean, with medium plus intensity. The aromas are of stone fruit (apricot), tropical fruit (pineapple) with some some minerality (stone) and sweet spice. Overall, the nose is developing. The palate is off-dry, with all major components in balance and medium plus flavor intensity and length. The flavors are consistent with the nose. Overall, this is a very complex, balanced and elegant wine. Drinks beautifully now, but has potential for ageing. |

5/18/2011 - DanR wrote: 91 pointsIntense, lifted nose of ripe peach, litchi, rose petal, and beeswax. Dense, weighty palate of peach, jasmine, pumpkin spice, and honeyed apricot. Not shy and very exotic. Finishes off dry with good length. Great with Choucroute. |

9/21/2015 - bakerandrewb Likes this wine: 91 pointsThis wine is a very light straw color without sediment. The nose is quite aromatic with citrus and floral tones. The palate follows suit with bright citrus. This wine is quite dry, light/medium body with smooth texture. This wine finishes medium in length, crisp and tangy. This wine has high acidity and is quite well balanced. Would highly recommend at price point, wish I had a few more bottles. |

8/14/2015 - Al Doughty Likes this wine: 91 pointsFocused and surprisingly powerful nose showing some funky elements to it , along with crushed rock, damp earth and muted dry red fruit. The palate is very mineral orientated on the front, with crisp raspberry flavors and a huge finish that leans more towards the orange/tangerine profile. |

3/11/2023 - roelof.ligtmans@gmail.com Likes this wine: 91 pointsTextbook Riesling in a nice place. Complex notes, only hints of petrol, mostly stone fruit. Ditto full taste with lots of oomph and enough balancing acidity, long finish. Dry, complex, well-balanced and satisfying. Good stuff ! |

10/6/2011 - TannicBeast wrote: 90 pointsClear medium lemon. The nose is clean, and at first is less than medium in intensity. The nose is youthful, with intriguing aromas are of stone fruit (peach), tropical fruit and citrus. The palate is barely off-dry, with flavors of stone fruit (apricot), tropical fruit (melon) and some mature traits (honey). The acidity, alcohol, and body are all medium and in balance. The flavor intensity and the length are medium plus. This is a very good wine which can be drunk now but has the potential for ageing a few more years. I tasted it blind and guessed it was an Alsatian Riesling, but in fact it does not have any of that varietal's petrol characteristics. Overall this is a very good wine and a fairly good value. |
