The 2012 Gewurztraminer Grossi Laüe is from the Sporen Grand Cru; thick, heavy clay lends richness and opulence. Made from non-botrytised fruit, which now at ten years old, has left its rose petals behind and has honed in on ripe, juicy yellow peach, both bottled and fresh. This has peach jelly on the palate and quite an intentional phenolic bitterness to counter its smooth richness. This is rounded and feels medium sweet at 20g/L of residual sweetness, proving that Gewurztraminer needs to be mature. Lovely.
