Bought from Wine Society as bin end then stored in cupboard! I thought this was too sweet, but my partner thought it was wonderful (though not for drinking with fish!). Rich, honey, mellow... (Note: this was the Grand Cru Brand) (Note: cost £10.55 in around 2005)

Medium lemon core, golden tints. Pronounced, developing and slightly honeyed aromas dominated by rose petals, but with ginger and spice. Off dry on the palate, full bodied, with excellent depth and showing turkish delight, floral notes, with honey and ginger emerging on a long finish which, although there is some acidity, I do find a little cloying. This is very good Gewurz, my mark reflects the fact that (being a lover of acidity) this isn't perhaps my favourite type of wine.

Spicy and earthy rather than floral and fruity, good concentration and stuffing, not too sweet, good definition and length.
