S: floral, lemongrass, pineappleT: fruity and sweet, melon, peach. Not bad for a value wine. Certainly runs on the sweet side. This would pair nice with a spicy dish to give some offset between the two.

Delicios! reminds me of elderflower. St. Germain, but in a wine and not so caramel in flavor.

There's some typical Gewürztraminer notes here ~ Some peppery spice, lychee, honey & peaches ~ A simple but good value gewürztraminer

Lacked the traditional spice of a Gewurztraminer. Flavors of orchard fruits (peaches & apricots). Moderately sweet, though short of dessert wine sweetness.

Sweet tropical fruit and refreshing apples -- not complex but very drinkable, nice and chilled on a warm evening--

Sweet honey/apricot followed by bright lychee that pleasantly lingers. Not too sweet or heavy. Definitely one of the better gewurztraminers and the price can't be beat.

Typical lychee aroma with hints of honey and crisp apple. Fruity and light on the palate with plenty of sweetness and smoothness. Distinct apple (possibly Gala apple) on the somewhat short finish.

Tried to open, corked flawed. Probably junk at this point anyway. Highly sedimented.

Tasted along with the Sutter Home Gewurztraminer. On first taste, lots of carbonation. Almost expected to see bubbles. Not strong acid like a Sauvingnon Blanc. After an hour or so in the fridge, the sweetness really came out. Not enough true acidity to actually balance the sweetness. Sutter Home beat it out slightly (rated 82), as it is a bit less sweet and the acidity seemed more natural.

Crisp nose, with high citrus flavors (will not claim to be able to taste the individaul fruits). Just flat out a great wine to enjoy with a light meal.

Definitely not bad for the price, but not too memorable either. An easy drinker with some sweetness.
