P: Med, poss MF, body; Very RNDISH entry with SWTISH frt (feinherb-like?) reasonably balanced by acidity. The finish is LONG, tangy/swt, with HINTS of typical Gewurz bitterness. Nicely done in what the winery calls an "Edelzwicker" style. 11.9% ABV; My VG+, particularly with respect to the fact that this is an unusual, hard to fine style in this price range. [This vendor's $11.99 is $2 < the lesser of wine-searcher's 2 listed sources.]

P: Med, poss MF, body; RNDISH entry with SWTISH frt (definite R.S. > threshold) adequately balanced by acidity which transitions into a LONG, tangy/swt finish with HINTS of Gt's (typical) varietal bitterness. NICELY done in its syle, this should drink through '19 without problem. 11.9% ABV; My VG/VG+. [This vendor's $11.99 is $3 < the only currently listed wine-searcher source.]

Alsatian blend style.
Jeff notes soapiness which I don't mind. Kinda smells and tastes Alsatian. So there it is. Witha kiss of sweetness. Too bad.
