This has a darkish color of honey. Pretty nose of acacia trees, dried apricots and honey. Oily and aged with subtle flavors of peach blossoms, citrus and honey and then a gripping acidity kicks in which lifts the wines to a nice, spicy, floral finish with notes of flinty minerals. Quite interesting how this has aged and excellent with food.

This is really beginning to mature and showing a molasses color. Interesting nose of lychee and apricot with some floral spice. Quite deep and intense for a Gewurtz with flavors of honey, apricot and madeira. Finishes with a nice, spicy minerality and plenty of petrol. I wouldn't want to drink Gewurtz much more mature than this.

A really tasty and full bodied Cali Gewurz with delicious flavors of lychee and tangerine. Tastes packed and seems like it could still improve with time. 91+

My system (nose mouth finish) +/+, this is what I was expecting from a wine this age, typical petrol poking though with citrus and lychee

Very dense for a Gewurtz with flavors of lychee and peach. Quite intense and concentrated with floral notes on the spicy finish. Still needs time.
