Gewurztraminer Vendanges Tardives AOC Alsace, 2022

The colour of this VT is a promising deep golden-yellow. The nose continues the promise with a medium-intensity and compelling aromatic set: lokum, honey, poached and dried pears, goldenrod, late linden blossom, oil, cooked lemon, golden raisins and fig. And the palate completes the treat: sweet, yet nicely balanced, with a medium-minus acidity, a high extract, a soft-plus texture, a full body, a length for days and an impressive persistence of honey, fragrant poached and dried pears, goldenrod, linden blossom, golden raisins, peach preserves and fig, closing with a long savoury twist finish. 2025-2032–IR
