An intense boquet of floral, rose petal, honey, and wet stone. The palate was oily and grapey with some perfumed floralness, however the wine came across imbalanced and flabby due to the lack of any real acidity and the presence of the sugar. This wine was recommended as an off dry, but realistically it is even sweeter than that A real shame, because it had some other interesting qualities. Medium short in length.

DO NOT DRINK COLD!. That being said if you drink it cold then don't buy it it isn't worth it. Colour: Golden Aroma: Tropical Fruit, Sweet Dessert Almost like, little Hint of a Cinnamon Toast Crunch. Taste: Thick/Viscous Tropical Good fruit, When Chilled the acidity is hidden and its a bit out of balance but once its warmed up to room temp the acidity kicks in very good
I think Price Ratio this is good, different then the regular Gewurtz less Lychee/Rose

Off dry with loads of white pepper and spice. The palate is dominated by papia, peach and mango but the spice is really what this is all about. Limestone and key lime show brightly on the long finish. Really different from the 2002. Moderate acidity though I would prefer more. Medium alc. Drink now - 2012 Very Good Quality.

At this point, more like a late harvest dessert wine. Syrupy and sweet tasting. Enjoyable, just not what we expected.
