Tasting note: The first gewurz icewine from Cilento is a success indeed. The colour is bright with yellow-green-gold notes. The exotic nose is full of well woven spicy mandarin, evergreen, pineapple and toffee. Very full, sweet and powerful on the palate, yet also has some poise and very focused flavours. Excellent length. Score – 92. (David Lawrason, Wine Access, March 2001) Price $ 54.95
