GEWURZTRAMINER 2017 GRAND CRU SAERING (MEDIUM-DRY)

Gewurz Traminer 2017 Grand Cru Saering (Medium-dry)

Vinous by Ian d’Agata 89/100

"Lively golden yellow. Aromas and flavors of licorice, cumin, anise and garlic flower; the fruit is more subdued. Finishes long and creamy, but with a strong herbal component. Boasts a whopping 14.9% alcohol but is very fresh and balanced, so I hardly noticed all those octanes. Tastes more off-dry than classically dry (11.5 g/L r.s. and 3.7 g/L total acidity)."
