Light gold colour. Fine, sweet but refreshing, candied lemon rind nose. Well structured, complex, gently spicy, vanilla stick and candied Seville orange rind flavours. Very well balanced, harmonious and quite delicious. |

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) |
