David Lole Likes this wine: 93 points
February 27, 2012 - Next with savoury crepes (filled with crispy smoky bacon, fetta cheese, rocket and topped with maple syrup and a balsamic glaze - an amazingly impressive combo!) I poured the remnants of a Hugel 1988 Gewutztraminer SDGN - chocka-block full of lychee, rose-hip, exotic spices and candied apricot with high acidity that tapered the high residual sugar normally found in this very late-picked style. For such an old wine to hold in the fridge for 24 hours and remain ultimately drinkable was no mean feat. About 91 points last night - I rated at 93 the night before.
