One of the best Gewurtztraminers I tasted recently, I just  regret that I did not opened this one at our competitions of Gewurtztraminerswe did about two months ago this would be the clear winner. We had Thai green curry with this one and it went fantastic! I got it on sale from one importar and when checking the price now i just found this link where they have different vintage for 30 pounds (Wow!!). Check also this video.
