Tuesday, September 13, 2022 - Retail $25. Despite the fact that I consider myself a child of Alsace (I studied there in college), I do not drink a ton of Gewurz. When I go Alsace, I tend to reach for Riesling, Pinot Gris, Pinot blanc, or even, increasingly, Pinot Noir before I reach for a "spicy Trainer." Fairly golden in the glass with loads of the characteristic lychee and spice on the nose. Much of the same on the palate with the addition of more than a bit of sweetness, and I would consider this a bit more than "off-dry." Again, I do not try a ton of this variety, but the sole fact that this takes me back to my days in Strasbourg more than warms the heart. Very Good.
