Still in great condition. Some residual sugar, but lots of acidity to clean it out. Full of rich rose petal fruit. This probably won't improve, but it is lovely and shows how well these things can age.

Very tasty, subtle Gewurtztraminer. My only comment holding this back was that it felt a little hollow at the finish. Otherwise, what a great privilege to drink a wine at 28 years old and still find it fresh and tasty.

Light gold, fresh, beautifully balanced Gewurtztraminer. No sign of its 27 years of age, other than a lovely subtlety and richness, with everything fully integrated, with the acidity offsetting the oiliness seemingly inherent in this grape. Criticism is fairly pointless - especially as I paid only £18 for this bottle. Does what it says on the bottle- wonderfully!
