Bottle variation - one a fair representation of VT, the other authentic SGN. This blossomed & flourished in the glass, the better bottle still retaining a true Gewurz character yet with finesse.

(24 hours after opening). Nicely mature gold color. Very floral nose with honey notes. Very, very rich, but also very refined. Not at all weighty on the palate. Spice notes have softened. Deep dried apricot and mango across the palate. A certain dryness throughout Finishes impressively long.
