July 23, 2014 - Big, expressive nose, bursting with lychee, more lychee, tamarind, ginger, and candied orange peel. Palate is smooth and sweet, but has some acid and tannin providing structure. The flavour is remarkably subtle and restrained compared to the huge nose. Flavours of longan, mango, pineapple, grapefruit, and orange. Great structure; should have a long future.

July 10, 2012 - Floral nose with a little spice. Some of the classic lychee on the palate but overall quite light in style. Low-moderate acidity. Need a little more of everything to be really outstanding.

December 17, 2010 - Has some spiciness, but rather average. One dimensional, lacks complexity - or maybe just thin.

September 9, 2010 - Nose of apricot with hint of vanilla and pineapple. Taste was lacking some oomph and spiciness I've had in other Gewurztraminers, but was pleasant with apricot being the most noticeable flavor. Did have a minerality quality, almost a sea air overtone.
