Helfrich
Steinklotz Alsace Grand Cru Gewürztraminer
Not too dry but not too sweet. Balanced wine that works with almost any dish.

Jan 26th, 2018Creamy, almost hazelnutty aroma hovers over juicy, fresh lychee fruit. Its lively and fresh, takes a few minutes to open up te notes. Enough citrus verve to balance the fruit. It's smooth, heavy, buttery and very appetizing.

Dec 13th, 2016Opening up nicely after a few minutes in the glass, the funk blew off early and is giving great stone fruit on the nose and palate still after all these years! Lacks the great spiciness I almost expect from fresh Gewurtztraminer but it makes up for it with subtle notes of lychee on the mid-palate with just enough residual sugar to truly preserve the palate which is surprisingly intact after all these years.
