Blend of 50% Sylvaner and Pinot Blanc, 15% Gewurztraminer, 22% Pinot Gris, 7% Riesling and 6% Muscat. Aromas of fresh white flesh fruit and floral notes. On the palate flavors of pear and apple with notes of white flowers. Medium finish ending with fresh fruit with floral character.

Never a bad bottle from this go-to. Always a pleasure and always hits me with the right amount of diesel, wildflowers, peachy tannins and acidity. I’ve had a bottle on Thanksgiving every year for a decade now.

Alsatian standard, time for my periodic benchmarking. Pale golden white, excellent clarity. Diesel and litchi notes in nose. Lemon and floral flavors. Soft, rounded mouthfeel, off dry, lactic and citric finish. Moderate skin astringency. Pleasant enough blend of flavors, acids with complexity

Pineapple and mango/peach, medium bodied with crisp acidity. Some flint on the finish. Really nicely balanced. Wish I bought a few more. Would probably age well.

Light, crisp, citrus burst. Went well with spicy Moroccan chicken.

Creamy, rich, unctuous, peach, tropical notes, dense and off-dry, but still clean and somewhat fresh.

This was a surprisingly great drink. Refreshing and a little sweet but not overbearing.
