 Tasted by Bandreas on 6/2/2023: 14 ct. yellow golden color.
the nose unmistakably spells Gewuertz. Sweet and fragrant. On the palate there is a hint of rose petals, otherwise the wine is curiously flat and short and finishes with a bitter after taste.
More interesting than pleasurable.
Again: I should have opened that wine 10 years ago. (146 views)
 Tasted by chatters on 10/16/2022: Thai lunch (Ben and Estella's place, Parramatta): Honey, caramel, slight lychee, waxy notes. Juicy, tangy, toffee, off-dry, honey, slight bitter on the finish with a little non-intrusive alcohol warmth. Sliding rapidly to full tertiary, very happy I've opened this with chums now. (338 views)
 Tasted by chatters on 3/26/2022: Coravin fun - Alsace, Loire and Random French (My place, Kent Street): From Coravin. Medium minus intensity aromas of leather, dried rose petal, with agitation earth, sweet spice and dried lychee. medium plus intensity acidity, creamy, buttery but quite fruit faded, a little lychee, turkish delight. medium plus length. drink up. (435 views)
 Tasted by chatters on 6/9/2020: From Coravin. Aromas of Turkish delight over lychee, slight herbaceous notes, caramel/toffee, biscuit, a touch of honey and very slightly earthy notes which become more noticeable with time where as the Turkish delight and lychee fade. In the mouth it's juicy, fresh, biscuit, honey, lychee, sweet spice, still textured on the mid palate. Beautifully balanced. No fade on the palate. Long finish. Glorious. (524 views)
 Tasted by chatters on 6/26/2018: Coravin fun - new arrivals (KC's place): From Coravin. Low intensity aromas of lychee, melon and roses, cream, vanilla and honey. Initially on the palate it's quite lightweight and then it explodes with lychees in honey syrup, crème caramel and vanilla custard. The only fault would be a slight lack of length but, at 35 years old, this is a bit of a stunner. (850 views)
 Tasted by CamWheeler on 1/18/2014 & rated 92 points: Annual Riesling Tasting 2014: Orange peel, coffee, caramel brulee and spices. The fruit has some power with the sweetness gliding across the seamless palate. Not ultra-complex but so satisfying! (2869 views)
