Score 90/100 · Drink 2001-2008, Pierre Rovani, Dec 2001

The lychee nut and rose-scented 1999 Gewurztraminer Herrenweg de Turckheim is a soft, rich, spicy wine. White peaches, sweet berries, and assorted flowers can be found in this plump yet detailed wine. Drink this concentrated and expressive Gewurz over the next 6-7 years.

Very ripe but reticent nose suggests honey and roasted yellow fruits. Full, sweet and expressive, but with lovely balancing acids. A classically balanced vintage for this bottling: sweet, smooth, persistent and enjoyable already. Finishes with a note of cinnamon.
