My score is probably high because I like this style of wine. Not a typical Gewurtz - but a typical FLX white wine. A little harsh - lots of acidity. Medium mouthfeel. Hi alcohol - but not obvious. Grapefruit, stone and lemon. Nice wine and great winery.

Definitely not up to par for Ravines; thin without much gewurz character. Maybe this was a bad vintage for gewurz? I would have expected a least some development by now but not the case

May or may not have been defective. Slight leakage under the foil. Some but not a lot of gewurz character on the nose; definitely flabby on the palate. I'm thinking its a bad bottle unless its way over the hill already? I wouldn't think so.

Just after a FLX visit. This was one of my favorite Gewurtz which I was checking out specifically. Stone and floral nose. Dry. Good acidity, pear and a floral notes. Hi alcohol - 12.5 - like a lot of the FLX wines. Very like some of the FLX rieslings. Short finish.

Nose: minerals, old leather.
Palate: minerals. Very dry. Some acidity towards the end.
