The max score for a wine with major flaws. I rate it instead of pressing the flawed button because 9 of 10 bottles were flawed, clearly on purpose. It was actually putrified. Abe Schoener, if you don't want to use sulfur, you can use ultraviolet light. At least wash your hands.

Pale gold, straw in color. Nose of soft spice -- not a lot of gewurtz spice, but some clove and cinnamon. Over whelming impression at the outset is oily. Petroleum, mouth filling, citrus and ripe fruit, with more oil. Not your classic Alsatian gewurtz, but well made and (as all of Abe's wines) always interesting.

Pale gold. straw color. Nose of soft spices. Overwhelming first impression on the palate is oily. Petroleum, white fruit, citrus spice and oil. Well made and asalways with Abe's wines, interesting.

Smelled like pickle juice. Blew off a little after 30 mins, but was still crappy. Tossed most of the bottle. A waste of money.
