This wine had a bit of citrus initially, but then it turned into tasting like water with a hint of sweetness. Water. I have never drank a wine that literally had no finish. Bad finish, good finish, there's always some kind of finish. Not here. It has a tapwater finish. Crazy. Would not buy again.

Bought 6 bottles on a whim based on the relatively high scoring. Four bottles have been opened so far at dinner parties that we've hosted with different sets of guests. My experience with all four bottles is consistent, as has been the reaction of my guests to this wine. The consensus is that this is not a good Gewürztraminer. Very floral on the initial pour - dissipating at a moderate rate as the first glass is consumed. Thin and watery, low in acid.

This bottle was as fresh and bright as the day it left the winery! Very nice, probably another 3-4 years left on this one.

Well past its prime -- was buried in the cellar so we gave it a shot -- not spoiled, just nothing of note going on anymore.
