Schramsberg is consistently excellent. Vivid and complex with flavors of baked raspberry tart, oyster shells, and spice. Broad and creamy on the mid-palate with feisty bubbles and a clean, bright finish. $43 — 5 years ago

This wine was made the year we got married. We bought it on our second wedding anniversary and opened it on our fifth. It aged very well. It has a beautiful balance of sweetness and acidity with a hint of toasted oak and a nice buttery mouth feel. — 7 years ago

Not an Alsatian gewurz but really nice. Doesn't have the oily mouth feel or the long finish. It's a new world wine. Great flavour, peachy, fruity with lemon finish. — 7 years ago

Gordons Čhanin tasting 6/13/17. $43. #1. Nose of white flowers and tropical fruits with mineral notes. Palate that's textured and with tension mouth feel and weight. Long finish with acids and minerals. Saline type minerals. Full melo unfiltered. Sulfur minimal and only after melo. Richest wine in lineup. Best nose of the group. Though not quite as full of tension. — 9 years ago
