Seattle Tasting Group does Alsace (Bellevue, WA): Guessed correctly as Gewurz. A ripe nose yet with good minerality. Deep color. Very, very spicy, loads of white pepper and and kerosene, chocolate covered orange. This is rather flamboyant and almost awkard next to the more elegant and precise Deiss Pinot Gris, but it is very nice nonetheless.

very dark/golden, thick and oily. wonderful floral notes, complex and long in the finish - delightful with the french onion soup as the acdity and sweetness were superbly matched. many many years left in the wine. very good indeed.

Typical Gewurz. Elegant. Stylish. Not as "in-your-face" as some.

Guest at STG Alsatian Tasting at Sea Garden (Sea Garden Restaurant, Bellevue, WA): Very deep gold , it wasn't hard to tell this was Gewurz. Big nose of lychee and roses, this was great with the food.
