Golden in color. The palate is just perfectly reminiscent of lychee with ample helpings of perfume. When done right, Gewürztraminer, with its tropical and spiced notes, can reign in as unique a flavor as Sauvignon Blanc and botrytized wines do. Some RS.

Medium straw to pale gold color; lychee fruit immediately apparent on the smell; fruit overwhelms on the taste, with intense lychee fruit, significant minerality, and some other scent I can't put my finger on dominating the attack; quite sweet at first, then sharp acidity hits; decent finish. Tastes like there is some residual sugar, but mid-palate acidity balances this out. Full-bodied, and very juicy overall. A bit too heavy for food, perhaps, but a solid, even complex, Gewurztraminer overall.

A little sweet for my taste - but good with Bronco Bobs Chipotle Mango sauce on pork.
