Can it really be that this is the first bottle of Gewurztraminer I've opened all year? Apparently so. Glorious. Light colour, green flecks, no sign of age. Fresh nose - amazing how this can age and still be so youthful. Marshmallow, roast peaches, typical heady orchid-like sweetness. Sweet entry, still fresh on the palate, but with toasted marshmallows, a sort of bonfire caramel thing, biscotti, round pillowy palate, soft finish without any hint of bitterness. Just lovely.

Sucre résiduel 16g/l Cuvée produite seulement les meilleures années Rond, équilibré mais la faible acidité (effet du millésime?) le rend moins digeste lorsqu’il se réchauffe donc à servir un peu plus frais qu'à l'habitude.

Great balance of florality and acidity. No sweetness, just fruit.

Mineral, excellent structure. Sweeter, but balanced with plenty of acidity

Bright yellow. Very aromatic. Nose is lychee, floral, mineral. Rich and sweet on the palate with a slight spiciness in the finish. Nice acidity.
