Lovely, expressive nose. Classic Gewürztraminer aromas but not overblown as they can be. Pure Turkish delight. Wafts of lychee, ginger and honey. An underlying wet stone note. Rich and full bodied but with a line of fresh acidity and a touch of grip. Great flavour intensity and persistence with some pleasant bitterness on the rosewater and honey finish. I'm not the biggest Gewürztraminer fan but this is fantastic. In a great spot so would say drink now... But would be interesting to see how this evolves.

Nearly oily consisistency. Very concentrated and powerful, but the rather high alcohol (14.5%) is very well integrated, no heat. Classic Gewürztraminer flavours, lychee and kiwi fruit, roses, balanced by a remarkably high acidity (especially for Gewürztraminer). In a good spot now, but could possibly improve further. Excellent! 93.

Als de druiven hun rijpheid hebben gekregen worden ze met de hand geoogst. De selectie is erg streng omdat wijnmaker Willi Stürz enkel de beste trossen wil voor zijn kroonjuweel.

Gewurz pretty nose with floral and honey. Different in the mouth - full mouth feel, almost heavy, the typical honey, flowers and tropical fruit, but also an odd bitterness which is there at the end and underlies the middle. I'm on an Alto-Adige kick at the moment and wanted to see what Gewurz tastes like from the area. I'm not sure after this wine. Its interesting, but I wouldn't want more than a glass at one sitting.
