Sadly, this was the last bottle of this wine but the case we bought several years ago has served us very well. Classic Gewurz with moderate sweetness, this is one of the wines that we paired with Korean barbecue--not a perfect pairing, but Korean food is tough. This wine? Outstanding. thedruneknecyclist.com

Certainly a bit dark, but a great nose of fruit, wildflower and lychee. On the palate, noticeably sweet, almost desert wine sweet. Still, there is a bit of acidity (even in such a tough year) and it paired very well with the Korean BBQ. Very Good to Outstanding. thedrunkencyclist.com

Deep golden color and the floral Gewurtz notes really jump out of the glass here. Noticeably viscous as I swirled this puppy, but I still spilled some (it was our third bottle of the evening). This wine is really impressive, quite sweet, could easily serve as a lighter dessert wine, but hey, it was great. Long, long finish and fancy schmancy bottle.
