Everything you want in a perfectly matured gewurtz. Deep golden color with aromas of lychee (obviously) and tropical fruits intertwined with tertiary aromas and flavors. I think this is exactly where you want it and should be in its prime drinking window for another year or 2 (or 3...).

Med yellow w a greeny/gold tinge - big, spicy pineapple, lychee, soap gum nose - quite full bodied, viscous but not oily - muscular but not heavy, flavours of baked pineapple and flan - balanced, finishes dry, not a lot of noticeable acidity, but enough to hold it all together - good length, great w turkey dinner - I don't think more time would do much to improve this.

Sushi with friends (Kai Zan, Chicago IL): Nose: There is a nice spiciness on the nose along with tones of lychees, pears, creams, and various spices.
Taste: Full bodied, but lacking acidity and coming off a bit flabby. There are good tones of lychees, spices, and pears, but the finish is clipped.
Overall: This feels like its slightly past it. It was still a nice Gewürztraminer to have now as well.
