Score 96/100 · Drink 2030-2070, Anne Krebiehl MW, Vinous, Jan 2025
The 2017 Gewurztraminer Vendange Tardive was picked in the Sporen Grand Cru. Clear blossom honey, candied orange and mandarin peel are the first aromas to reach the nose. A hint of rose oil is a close second, while a touch of honeysuckle hovers seductively. The palate is rounded and sweet, like exquisitely defined candied citrus fruit. It's a compact, delicious dollop of sweetness, like candied mandarin peel and flesh perfumed by rose oil. The 2017 boasts 93.7 g/L of residual sugar. (Sweet)
