Hard to believe it’s the same grape that goes toward some of the most boring white wines available. This is wild; pretty peach color from a little skin contact, slight oxidative notes which add to the complexity without tiring the wine out, very lively, intense and fairly long finish, most of the fruit is around apricots.

2018 vintage. Good representation of the sweeter side of Gewurztraminer. Equivalent to spätlese ripeness and weight. Candied pink grapefruit, tangerine, gardenia, jasmine, white tea, poached pear, candied citrus peel, lychee. Lacks the oiliness that the variety sometimes tends to, lots of acidity to counterbalance the sweetness. — 6 years ago

Fucking perfect Riesling. Supa smooth and easy to inhale. Hint of sweet but not overly so. Balanced — 8 years ago

Initial aromatics of lychee and white peach. Initial comment to see if note is accepted. A Grand Cru Riesling from Alsace which is unique because of its soil type which is volcanic rather than sandstone - the latter in the minority. Dry Riesling with a certain spiciness. Deserves to be a Grand Cru. The vineyard was first planted in the 12th Century by the Cistercian Monks hence the name Muenchberg (Mountain of the Monks). — 2 months ago

Ostertag always comes through for me. This is a well made classic Alsatian Gewurztraminer with a mineral kick that gives it ⚡️ — 7 years ago

First bottle of this was excellent. This one showed too much alcohol but settled a bit on day two. — 3 days ago
