This is a find plus a considerable bargain. Fruit flavor nose it has them all. Nice for summer.

Perfect with Thai food on a Tuesday at home. Comfort food for a recovering guy

Aromatic nose leads to off-dry wine on the palate. On the simpler side.

A dry-style Gewurz with a fruit-forward, floral, fragrant nose. Drier on the palate. Silky mouthfeel with the floral notes carrying through. -- Wineshout.com

Fantastic aroma, distinct lychee perfume. Nicely balanced stands up nicely to food.

Like the whites I've enjoyed lately, intoxicating bright citrus and pear on the nose, crisp, tart amd effervescent on thr palette.

Great light flavor, not too sweet. But still fruit flavor.

Fizzy, citrusy and I can't quite say what else was off but I didn't care for it. Shouldn't have got wine with a screw top!

Unique, interesting, delicious! Floral, spicy, semi- dry, and smooth. Great accompaniment to Pad Thai tonight. I'm looking forward to trying more Gewürztraminer!

Brilliant with ginger pear dessert. Wine tasting dinner, Passports. ABV 12.8% Some flavor component that is really different from the usual Gewurtz. Is it loquat? Lovely wine.
