Kuehn 2007 Gewürtztraminer Vendages Tardives

Light gold.  This displays immediate perfurmes of tropical fruit (lychee) together with minerals and delicate scents of rose petals. The wine then yields an undercurrent of soft spiciness to end with a captivating soffused smokiness. The palate is similarly characterized by juicy tropical flavours, spice and moderate sweetness with no allusion to cloying impressions. This is enjoyable and has a good QPR, however some additional depth and acidic kick would have been preferred. Rebuy: maybe.
