Nariz de buena intensidad, con un peculiar toque de "crema de manos", muchas flores blancas y toques de pétalos de rosa sobre un fondo de especias exóticas. En boca el dulzor se integra peor que en el Clos Windsbuhl y muestra mayor golosidad. Excelente acidez que marca el paso por boca, buenos amargos, seductor dulzor y notable persistencia. Buena estructura.

Beautiful gold color with an exotically floral nose. Nectar of the Gods. If you're considering buying this please be aware it's fairly sweet; auslese-esque. It's up to we the tasters to inform the wine-buying community of these minor details (he writes sarcastically) as producers in Alsace for the most part won't tell you degrees of sweetness. Can't be bothered, I suppose. Purchased at K&L at the low low price of $75. It's a treat but what was I thinking?! The '13 Humbrecht Gewurztraminer Hengst has the structure to carry it nicely into 2021-2022 while staying fresh. Much longer it will eventually get tired and start to sag, as we all do.

Very lovely in every way, but still quite primary. Wait five more years at least. 5-13-18-9: 95/100.
