Not faulted per se however retained zero varietal typicity and really has nothing left to say. I hope it's the age

I think that this is better than most tasters give it credit. Yes there is some hint of sweetness but there is tons of ripe white fruit along with perfect mouthfeel. Medium finish

It’s interesting how good wines are amazing during deep conversations. I’m sure y’all can agree.

Amazing, dry and aromatic Gewürztraminer. Clear straw color. Aromas of Turkish delight, honey and lychee. Flavors of rose petals, lychee, orange and a ginger finish.
