Domaine Loew Gewurztraminer 2003

Rating: 92/100 - As reviewed by The Wine Messenger A rich, smooth, emollient white, with complex flavors of orange peel, flowers and cloves - great with spicy foods.A beautiful golden colored wine with a very expressive nose of stone fruit, orange peel, flowers, and spice - especially cloves. large, smooth, emollient wine with tremendous complexity and balance. The fruit flavors mirror the nose, complemented by a long, spicy finish. Drink over the next couple years as an aperitif or with foie gras, rich poultry dishes, quiche, ethnic foods, and, of course, Alsace's Munster cheese.

Fantastic wine - very emolient, rich and fruity. A very spicy nose with rich dried fruit tones in it too.

Smells nice and with a sweet start. Very flowery - reminds me of sweet hay. Kinda tangy at the same time.

Although originally from Germany, Gewurztraminer has achieved acclaim for its potent, aromatic, golden-colored wines grown on the warm, dry hills of France's Alsace region.

With some examples (especially from the New World) overly sweet; and others late-harvest wines intended to be consumed as dessert wines, confusion is common regarding what tastes like. read more...Domaine Loew's Gewurztraminer enjoys a remarkable balance of acidity, richness, and aromatic flavors. The young Etienne Loew has adopted careful, sustainable agriculture in his family's vineyards near Westhoffen and the results have been fantastic so far!
