July 19, 2019 - Previously tried from bottle just over six months ago and also in June 2019 at the winery and my notes remain consistent. Nose showed honey, spices and floral notes with some orchard fruit the longer it was open, but the honey qualities seemed to overshadow them. Medium bodied and the fruit notes of slightly dryer apple and softer peach continue to be dominant. Mid-body is very rounded and open and the fruit feels balanced, not tired. Backside shows spices, floral notes and enough acidity for some tartness to creep in for contrast. This bottle didn't seem to have as much acidity is my prior one, or what I tasted at the winery, but with a nearly 13 year old FLX gewürztraminer, that's not surprising. I would drink this now as additional cellar time won't benefit. Very pleased I had the opportunity to try this wine so often over the past year.
