85 Points

Saturday, January 10, 2009 - Saturday night Football and Wine (Chicago IL, Phillip's apt): nose: a slight bit of VA on the nose detracts a bit, but nice mature tones of honey, melons, pears, and bits of apricots. While mature, there isn't the depth that one would want from a mature gewurz

taste: lighter feel with good tones of honey and pears along with slight bits of nectarines. A bit thin and hollow on the mid-palate with almost no real discernable acidity

overall: its a nice wine and an interesting experience, but its lacking in a few areas that would make it much better. Its really the nose that makes this wine as the palate is a slight bit of a letdown, and the nose isn't exactly screaming. The acidity is lacking, but what is there is nice, though it does lack depth
