It is made from the Gewurztraminer grape variety, known for its aromatic and floral characteristics. The wine falls into the category of Selection de Grains Nobles, which indicates that it is made from individually selected, botrytized grapes with high sugar concentration. The wine pours a medium amber in the glass. The nose is expressive, featuring aromas of apricot, saffron, tinned peaches, marmalade, and honey. Surprisingly, the palate isn’t as cloying as expected. It is fairly lively and perceived as medium plus sweetness, which has mellowed with age. While it lacks non-fruit complexity, botrytis, or varietal character, it remains a nice wine.
