From at least 55-year-old and possibly up to 100-year-old vines, the 2022 Clos Windsbuhl Hunawihr Gewurztraminer is deep, intense, elegant and spicy on the rich and iodine nose. It’s very rich and powerful on the palate with fine tannins, fine salinity and remarkable elegance. 13.1% stated alcohol plus 39.8 grams per liter of residual sugar. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine in April 2024.–Stephan Reinhardt, The WIne Advocate
I love the subtle floral honey, ripe grapefruit and shiso leaf aromas of this super-elegant and creamy, full-bodied gewurz that is so unique you might well not recognize the grape variety. What delicacy and vitality at the long, silky finish. From biodynamically grown grapes. Drink or hold.—James Suckling
