  Appearance: Bright and clear, medium gold in color, with watery rims and legs
  Nose: Clean, medium (+) intensity and having youthful aromas of logan, lychee, apricot, orange blossom, perfume, rose petals and honey
  Palate: Off-dry, medium (-) acidity yet lively, the wine is of medium alcohol and medium (+) body, showing medium (+) intensity flavors of orange blossom, apricot, logan, perfume and slightly buttery, with medium length
  Conclusion: Good quality Alsace Gewurztraminer with a fairly complex nose and good intensity, showing a diverse profile of tropical fruit and perfume characters. Slightly sweet, the palate is also concentrated and complex. Quite full-bodied but not oily, it is in good balance with a reasonable length. Ready to drink now but can age for another 1-2 years.
