Domaine Paul Blanck, Furstentum Vieilles Vignes Gewurztraminer 2012 Alsace Grand Cru, noté 17.5; Gewurztraminer 2016 Alsace, noté 16.5+ Furstentum Vieilles Vignes Gewurztraminer 2012 Alsace Grand Cru RS 39.9 g/l. Heady and tropical flowery. Round and opulent. With a smudgy undertow of Gewurz’s seductive charm. Finishes with smokiness. Long. Immediate appeal for everyone, I would imagine. But lighter than some. 13% Drink 2015-2020 17.5
Gewurztraminer 2016 Alsace RS 15.59 g/l. Pale greenish straw. Fresh, light and floral but without strong Gewurz character on the nose. Sweet start and quite juicy and agreeable with satisfactory sugar/acid ratio. Fairly long. Neat and unshowy. Refreshing. May develop into something even more impressive. 13% Drink 2017-2021 16.5+
