Trimbach

Alsace Gewürztraminer

Lovely lychee, saffron and pear make for a delicious sipper that will complement spicy or sweet food. Rich, but not unctuous. — 7 years ago

Not a massive viognier fan, but I love Pott wines and thoroughly enjoyed this wine. Light and refreshing with lots of lavender, peach, lychee, and lime. Paired exceptionally well with fish soup. — 7 years ago

Domaine Léon Boesch

Edelzwicker Alsace White Blend 2014

Our dinner for the evening. Beef-pork frankfurters with turmeric-jalapeño sauerkraut and Curry ketchup on a potato bun garnished with fennel seeds. Accompanied by a 1l, high acidity, lychee-finishing Alsatian white blend - 45% Riesling, 25% Pinot Blanc, 15% Gewürztraminer, 12% Pinot Gris, 3% Muscat. - DAY 2 - ø Nota Bene ø this is also an excellent wine to pair with sushi. The subtle interplay of flavor in traditional sushi really brings out the diversity evident in the blend. — 9 years ago

Domaine Zind Humbrecht

Hengst Alsace Grand Cru AOC Gewürztraminer 2013

Like any good gewurtz, it's very lychee driven. There's barley honey and Meyer lemon in there, which brings in some acidity. But there's a strange zip at the back of the throat. A slightly funky sting, almost like a strong blue. That's not a bad thing, just rather interesting. Would recommend more for meals than drinking with friends — 9 years ago

La Doriane Condrieu Viognier

Rich in aroma, flavor, and texture. The oak was there but what caught my attention more was the white floral and lychee notes. On the palate it's dense, extremely pure, with a huge finish that shows acidity buried down deep in the wine. Great stuff if you can try it, a benchmark from one of the greatest sites in Condrieu! — 9 years ago

The most delicious adult soda. Lush ripe tree fruit and lychee, a touch of musk and a burst of sweet citrus. Frizzante and sweet, but not cloying at all. Perfect with some spicy chili. Will drink again. — 7 years ago

Estate Vineyard Sonoma Coast Gewürztraminer 2016

An old favorite I haven't seen in some time. Pale yellow in color, lychee and pear notes in nose as promised on label, maybe some other tropical or pineapple note. Tangerine, lychee and pear flavors in mouth, floral and tropical fruit finish with mild mouth-coating astringency. A day later, date and pineapple flavors emerge. Almost bone dry, well made. Better with food but a worthy dry GT, and a benchmark — 7 years ago

Yacochuya

San Pedro de Yacochuya Valle de Cafayate Torrontés 2014

At this price point arguably the best Torrontes expression I've come across. Floral and citrus nose, broad mid palate with still sufficient acidity and some peach and even minty tones. The after taste however is the impressive part, boasting sufficient rose water and lychee impressions to challenge any self respecting Elzas Gewurtztraminer. Too bad for the hotness due to the high alcoholic content, and the bit of unpolished bitterness at the end, but again at that price point an impressive total package. — 9 years ago
