The wine has a deep golden-yellow colour with a beautiful sheen, typical of a ripe Gewurztraminer. The aromatic bouquet is intense and opulent, with pronounced aromas of lychee, rose petals, peach and tropical fruit. There are also subtle nuances of spices such as clove and a light touch of honey. On the palate, the wine is full and powerful, with a velvety texture and a light residual sweetness beautifully balanced by refreshing acidity. The exotic fruit and floral accents carry through on the palate, with a spicy undertone that adds extra depth. The finish is long and aromatic, with lingering fruitiness and an elegant, lightly spicy touch.
Ideal with spicy Asian dishes, foie gras, Munster cheese or aromatic curries.
