TASTING NOTE: What a great gewurz, perhaps the best Ontario has yet produced - from a great white wine vintage. It has a fragrant and flamboyant nose packed with exotic lychee, orange marmalade, honey mustard and ginger. It's medium weight, fleshy, warm and dense on the palate, with perfume on the finish. Medium dry, well balanced with very good to excellent length. Score - 91 (David Lawrason, winealign.com, June 2016) |
