4/20/2024 - drwine2001 wrote: NRTasting at Domaine Weinbach (Kaysersberg, France): Full yellow color. Honeyed. Medium to full bodied. Rich tropical fruit, moderate sweetness, adequate but unimpressive acidity, average length. Some delicious, succulent fruit, but simple and lacking energy and balance. |

4/20/2024 - drwine2001 wrote: NRTasting at Domaine Weinbach (Kaysersberg, France): Yellow. Light petrol. Medium weight. Properly tart stone fruit. Just off dry. Moderate acidity and intensity but a long soil finish. Overall I preferred the Colette as this lacked excitement. |

4/20/2024 - drwine2001 wrote: NRTasting at Domaine Weinbach (Kaysersberg, France): Pale red. Fragrant green aromas. Medium weight, very good texture. Red berry fruit and lots of herbs set atop a core of clay and crunchy acidity. Quite tannic. Very good, proper Pinot Noir with limited upside. |

4/7/2024 - BobLikesWine wrote: 85 pointsNo faults, but definitely past its prime drinking window. The wine was gold like honey, but perfectly clear. Sediment all clumped nicely together. On the nose, it was lightly floral and pleasant, but not strong enough to describe well. It had lost its freshness of taste over the years lost in my cellar, but it still had hints of apricot. The taste did not persist long. |

2/13/2024 - ElAzul wrote: 94 pointsWhat a fabulous wine! Lychee and other tropical aromas are delightful and matched by the rich palate of lychee, some rose water and a terrific spicy mouth feel that just keeps on going. Zinc Humbrect is no longer distributed in Michigan but this wine will do just fine. Reminds me somewhat of ZH Clos Winsbuhl but at a much better price. |

12/31/2023 - VinoGeeko Likes this wine: 90 pointspeaked at last CT note from 2009. agree with the apple cider note - still there, along with tree nut, maple, and chamomile simmered with honey. Had a sip from the glass and the rest was over vanilla ice cream. Lovely with dessert. Not enough acid (and or too syrupy) for stand alone, Im afraid. And Im generally pretty forgiving. A bit reminiscent of pedro ximenez I’m afraid (ie madierized and merely medium acidity). |

12/31/2023 - hermitkingdom wrote: 94 pointsBurnished copper color. I was a bit worried about oxidation, but it was fine. Better than fine, in fact. Supposedly this was a declassified SGN and that makes senses because the notes here are overwhelmingly botrytized: honey and caramel. off-dry. A bit if lychee and face cream to let you know this is Gewürztraminer, but very much in background. Great length. Not going to improve, but still very much alive and excellent. |

12/21/2023 - beatles wrote: 93 pointsThis is very interesting. Build on layers of mineral and honey, a wee bit seeter than expected, certainly a Riesling from a great terroir but also very much in the domaines powerful style. Drinking a point, I think, not much gained from cellaring any further. Everybody loved it all around. |

9/25/2023 - jnewman77 Likes this wine: NRExcellent stuff; alongside a pumpkin spice cake; a beautiful and intense nose of honeyed peach, lychee, rose water, and ginger; ripe and flamboyant with impressive intensity, but also a perfectly judged acidity to keep this feeling vibrant. This should age for decades still, but its really good now. |

9/8/2023 - Tim Heaton Likes this wine: NRPnP, quite good. It's three years since the last bottle, and if this bottle is representative, it's in its preferred window now. The off-dry, to my taste, is suitably in the shadows, allowing more brightness to the lychee and orchard fruit aromas and flavors. A good sense of place, and exactly what I want the type of experience I want to enjoy in young-ish Gewurz. 13,5% abv.' drink now and the next 4-7 years. 22€ at the winery, a win. Easily recommended |

8/27/2023 - Lord of the Bottles Likes this wine: 97 pointsThis was sensational. Uber high toned concentrated candied tangerine and candied lemon and beeswax. Honeyed but not cloying. Fresh yet sweet. 30 second plus finish. 97+ has years ahead. |

8/24/2023 - Ellenkf Likes this wine: 95 pointsLayered, complex, mineral, sleek, amazing. Bottle seems to have hit a really good stage of drinking where the fruit personality (yellow pear, pear drop) is still the star. Aromatic- floral, honeyed, fruited, shiny, The depth of off dry flavors extends to honey botrytis, toasted walnuts, and horseradish. Wears its beefy alcohol (14.5!) so well. The texture is sleek, not the commonly found Baroque weight. This feels Grand Cru start to long mineral finish. This is what all Pinot Gris should aspire to be. |

8/14/2023 - Lord of the Bottles Likes this wine: 94 pointsThis was supposed to have been served before the ‘08 SGN but was poured after, even so, this was beautifully composed with loads of nectarine and caramelized orange peel and a long finish. Amazing length and complexity for such a young VT. 94 |

8/14/2023 - Lord of the Bottles Likes this wine: 97 pointsFor my 2,000th note on Cellartracker, it was an amazing experience to taste this. Incredibly long 30+ second finish of orange marmelade, citrus peel, forest honey and emerging hints of petrol on the nose. Drinks as good if not better than some of the top d’Yquem vintages (I know it’s not the same grape). 97-98 |

6/5/2023 - ziavino wrote: 92 pointsQuite nice, with notes of ripe peach, Mandarin orange, and cut flowers commingling throughout. There's a roundness here buoyed by medium acidity, and hints of minerality poke through as it warms. |
