  December 15, 2012 - lychees and oily tropical notes fighting to get through too much alcohol and bitterness.

  November 30, 2011 - I'll echo Bec54's review ("Youthful nose of ginger, pear, peach, and lychee. In the mouth it had a lot of orange blossom, more ginger, and faint clove. Couldn't tell if it was dry or off-dry. I think off-dry"), with the one modification that it is a dry wine, albeit a very fruity one. Love the ginger notes in this.
  
  Should drink well for the next 3 years.

  November 12, 2011 - Enjoyed it, but I think, not worth $17.99. Very nice floral nose. Good mouth feel. Sweetness on the palate was not overwhelming, but not offset enough by acidity to balance this out. Gewurz is definitely an acquired taste. I like it, but I like others better. Would like to taste a really good expression of this to get a better idea. Withholding score.
