94 points Vinous: "Bright, golden-tinged yellow. Highly perfumed nose of yellow flowers, mango, passion fruit, crystallized papaya and fresh ginger. At once silky and crystalline, offering outstanding finesse to the rich, honeyed flavors of grapefruit, minty guava and sweet spices. The palate-saturating finish really mounts and builds while remaining focused and energetic. A deep, rich, round, well-balanced wine that showcases magnificently why the Eichberg is one of Alsace’s three or four best grands crus for Gewürztraminer. Outstanding stuff, and a rea ...Read More »

92 points James Suckling: "Lots of concrete and spices featuring cloves and dried apples. A dry, full-bodied palate with polished texture. Lovely fruit, too. Drink now. " (12/2016) 92 points Wine Enthusiast: "A very shy nose just releases the most teasing hint of peach. The palate is utterly restrained: peach flavors are dry and brightened by lemon and have a wonderful lightness of touch. The finish is dry, clean and long. A very refreshing and clean-cut take on Gewurztraminer. (AK)" (08/2017) 90 points Vinous: "Good full yellow. The strongly floral ...Read More »

95 points James Suckling: "So much more subtle than the majority of Alsace Gewürz with countless delicate floral notes. Finally textures that are not only seductive, but also graceful and exciting like a prima ballerina's leaps. Very cool clean finish. Made from biodynamic grapes. Ecocert certified. " (06/2017) 95 points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: "The 2015 Gewurztraminer Clos Windsbuhl is in fact a Vendange Tardive that was picked at 16.66% potential alcohol, since it stopped fermentation at 12.5% and 70.7 grams of residual sugar. However, Oliver ...Read More »

From the winery: This wine originates from Fronenberg – a superb argilo-calcareous “terroir” which is eastward facing. Tasting notes : This wine is intense on the nose revealing hints of rose, lychees and candied fruit. On the palate it is round, full and rich and gives aromas of exotic fruit, mango and liquorice. Suggested food pairings : Delicious as an aperitif, this wine also is perfectly suited to foie gras, spicy dishes or strong cheeses such as Roquefort or Munster. 90 points Guide Gilbert & Gaillard 2017

90 points Wine Enthusiast: "Hints of rosewater and Turkish Delight waft from the glass. More toned down, the palate shines with citric freshness. There is quite a bit of warmth that seems to intensify the floral peach notes even more. It's very aromatic and varietally true, with a tropical finish of passion fruit. (AK)" (12/2016) Wine Spectator: "Hints of beeswax and orange blossom herald this dry and balanced Gewürztraminer. A smoky underpinning accents the pink grapefruit granita and white pepper notes. Drink now through 2020. 3,500 cases made. (AN, ...Read More »

92 points James Suckling: "Generous citrus, lychee and jasmine on the nose. Some delicacy. A remarkably crisp and dry gewurztraminer that has a refreshing finish, making it an unusually good food wine for this grape. Drink or hold. Made from biodynamically grown grapes. " (05/2018) 91 points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: "From the Herrenwweg area, the intensely citrus colored 2016 Gewurztraminer Turckheim is from vines averaging 47 years old and opens with a very precise and slightly smoky bouquet with lovely spicy Gewurtz notes. Full-bodied yet clean ...Read More »

90 points James Suckling: "Understated Gewurztraminer that has an unusually firm structure and delicate fruit for this grape. Drinks well now but could go another five years."

90 points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: "The highly aromatic and varietal 2017 Cartagena Gewurztraminer is dry and austere on the palate and has the telltale varietal aromas of lychee and rose petal as well as that characteristic bitterness on the finish. It has moderate acidity, lowish compared with its siblings. It seems to call for some Thai food. 15,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in August 2017. (LG)" (10/2018) K&L Notes: Based just a stone's throw from the Pacific Ocean, Casa Marin has worked hard to become one of the premier wineries on Ch ...Read More »

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: "The 2017 Old Vine Gewürztraminer opens with gardenia and musk perfume over ripe white peaches and nectarines. Medium to full-bodied, it fills the mouth with rose perfume and ripe stone fruits, with just enough refreshing acidity and a long, perfumed finish with pleasant phenolic texture. (EB)" (08/2018)

New!
92 points Vinous: "Vivid yellow-gold. Aromas of tropical fruit, exotic spices, yellow flowers and citrus peel, plus a smoky note; this smelled like it had been hit by some botrytis. Very rich but suave and fine-grained, offering exotic flavors of mango and orange peel that are focused by a noteworthy mineral spine (Steingrubler means “stone quarry”). Offers compelling sweetness and intensity, but also firm acidic lift. I'd love to try this with a Hawaiian pizza or a spicy pork dish with pineapple chutney! A portion of these grapes were harvested late, on ...Read More »

91 points Wine Enthusiast: "Orange blossom, lime pith, candied citrus and a touch of flint show on the focused nose of this wine. It's quite racy and grippy on the sip, where orange zest and julienned Pink Lady apple flavors dominate. (MK)" (10/2018) Connoisseurs Guide: "This is not the first time that this producer has come up with an expressive, distinctively varietal dry Gewürztraminer, and the new 2017 version ranks with the winery’s best to date. It is a rich and solidly built offering that speaks strongly to spice while teasing with suggestions o ...Read More »

92 points Wine Enthusiast: "Light in color, this perennially lovely white is fragrant and varietal, lush in white peach, lychee and vanilla. Ginger and lemongrass give an intensity on the crisp, complex finish. It starts and ends dry. (VB)" (09/2018) Connoisseurs Guide: "If at first a little shy, this well-crafted offering ever so steadily comes into fine varietal focus with a good bit of spice accenting its aromas and flavors of sweet citrus and lychee-like fruit. On the palate, it is slightly rounded with just enough acidity for balance, and the mino ...Read More »

90 points Wine Spectator: "Bright and well-knit, this expressive Gewürztraminer shows lots of the grape's grapefruit zest, crunchy white peach and white pepper notes, set in a racy, mineral-driven frame. Drink now through 2023. (AN)" (05/2018) Vinous: "Bright pale golden-yellow. Enticing smoky grilled pork, ginger beef, cinnamon and grapefruit nectar on the very Gewürz nose. Then flavors similar to the aromas and - though not especially complex - delicious and very accessible. Finishes medium-long and off-dry but with good mineral tang (17 g/L residual ...Read More »

Alsace is the exception to the French tradition of naming wines after place of origin -- here varietal nomenclature is the thing. But the wines of Alsace are very French, having perhaps more in common with Burgundy than Germany. Barth Rene produces classic Alsatian wines in the village of Bennwihr. This Gewurztraminer is from the "Vogelgarten" vineyard, which is planted exclusively with Gewurztraminer. Vines grow in calcerous soils on a hillside plot with southern exposure, and are planted with a density of 4,500 to 5,000 vines per hectare. Grapes are ...Read More »

From the Altenbourg vineyard (located directly below the Grand Cru Furstentum), this cuvée shows captivating, rot-ennobled flavors of lychee, candied grapefruit, yellow fruits, and flowers. It is rich and fine with great verve and elegance. Years in and out, it contains 30-45 g/l residual sugar, often at the level of a Vendanges Tardives. On the nose, golden raisins come to mind. It is very sweet and very candied with clove and intense brioche notes. A very classy Gewurztraminer with tons of butter. and honey on the finish.

93 points Wine Enthusiast: "A tender but perfumed hint of honeysuckle appears first on the nose, followed by rich peach hints. These notions persist on the palate where the peach and ripe yellow-plum notes are boosted by residual sweetness and countered by phenolic, slightly zesty but pleasant bitterness. You can feel the warmth on the medium-sweet finish. This is full on and rich, almost unctuous—perfect for blue cheeses." (12/2017) 91 points James Suckling: "A really excellent off-dry gewurztraminer with spice, almond, flint and stone aromas and flav ...Read More »
