Very pale straw core, with strong green reflections. Pear and roses of the nose. Light-bodied, with slight residual sugar (similar to many gewurz from Alsace, albeit lighter). Acidity is on the low side, and the nose of fresh Asian pear and faint roses comes through loud and clear. Because of the low acidity and fresh aromatics, reminiscent of sake, this should work very well with many Japanese dishes (particularly something rich and slightly sweet like gyudon or buta no kakuni) and certain Chinese dishes (including Peking duck).

Nearly bone dry. A little residual sugar enhances this wine. Lacks the rose petal nose that marks a great Gewurz. Nice accompaniment to Thai cuisine. A little light, but it goes down real easy!
