  Golden amber color indicative of age. Floral nose, tropical fruits, lycee, spices, good acidity but showing some age. Delightful. Drink now-2024.

  Terrific wine. Tropical fruits, predominant notes of guava, not very acidic, soft and smooth on the palate.

  Pours a golden dark yellow in the glass, showing its age.
  
  On the nose: an array of tropical fruits, mangoes, lychees, some creaminess or nuttiness
  
  On the palate: a nice backbone of acidity, full bodied, notes of honey and ginger, toasted almonds, and hint of cloves.
  
  Beautiful wine by Trimbach

  Plenty of exotic fruit aromas of orange zest, guava, tons of rambutan and mangosteen escorted by shy aubergines, linseed oil, perhaps some fish oil, more orange essence, slightly candied, a lot of smoke and even more salt. Not too sweet at all, still super young and really complex! Quite overwhelming character with a lot depth! ery surprising! Having written that, surely not very suitable for a bender.

  Appearance: Bright and clear, the wine is of medium gold colour, with greenish rims and legs.
  Nose: Clean, with medium (+) intensity of citrus fruit of grapefruit, tropical fruit of longan, stone fruit of apricot, mineral notes of stony, sweet spice of ginger and nutmeg, floral notes of rose, maturity notes of honey. The wine is developing.
  Palate: Dry with medium (+) acidity, the wine has medium (+) alcohol, medium (+) body and medium (+) intensity flavours of citrus fruit of grapefruit, tropical fruit of lychee, stone fruit of peach, sweet spice of ginger, floral notes of rose, mineral notes of stony. The wine has a medium (+) finish.
  Conclusion: Very good quality Alsace Gewurztraminer with an intense nose showing good complexity, with the signature varietal characters more reminiscent of longan than lychee, highly floral with roses, and also spicy. On the palate the wine has good acidity and while it is dry, the fruity notes make it feel off-dry, with good balance and nice concentration of similar flavour notes and a fairly long finish. It is ready to drink now and can maintain for another 2-3 years.
