"DATE: 07-07-08 Appearance: Light white gold.
Nose: Roses, lychee, cinnamon, floral/spicy/herbal nose, quite inviting.
Palate: Off dry with moderate acidity, midweight plus. Big gewurz attack fills the mouth, following the nose. Nice light astringency (typical of real gewurz) shows on teh midpalate and lasts all the way through the very long clean dry finish. It ain't good gewurz without this act...
Conclusions: Good wine from a good year should go five years, gaining weight and complexity. Try this with the usual spicy food suspects, or by itself on a hot summer day, lightly chilled (not overly cold though or you will lose some of the flavours). A real treat with a spicy stir-fry." lfw

FROM THE PRODUCERS: "Spiced-filled nose of clove and nutmeg, fresh green apple, orange marmalade, honeysuckle, and green tea. Balanced acidity on the palate with a long spicy finish."
