Brilliant gold in the glass. Floral bouquet with hints of candied fruit and fine herbal spice. Lots of sweet yellow fruit and a restrained almond note on the palate. Full-bodied, creamy flavour of orange zest, some cinnamon and white pepper. The finish is long and compact with candied fruit and saffron. You could call it sensory overload, but no: it is a highly elegant, polyphonic symphony concert with several encores and standing ovations! SUPERIORE.DE

"Polished, firm and deep nose of partly candied and preserved white and yellow fruits with planty to herbal aromas, almonds and hazelnut, some sea buckthorn as well as vegetal and floral tones. Dense, youthful, rather bright, very sweet fruit, fine acidity, clear candy tones and some light honey on the palate, floral tones, a little white berries and lychee, ethereal-herbal notes, orange zest and some preserved apricot, a lot of salt in the background, good depth, still undeveloped, quite complex, very good to long, polished, sweet, juicy and finely spicy finish." Wein-Plus

"Sparkling straw yellow with a light gold colour. Delicate and pleasant nose, initially of yellow peach, banana, some nutmeg and white pepper, then elegant candied citrus fruit, constantly developing in the glass. Oily texture, with a creamy fruit centre, warm-hearted, pleasant, soft and somewhat broad on the finish, clear on saffron." Falstaff

"Deep golden and unagitatedly slow in the glass. Luscious, breathtakingly sweet! It's like a concentrate of Alphonso mango and apricot syrup. Beautiful deep orange-coloured acidity. But so intensely sweet and concentrated that it almost makes your eyes water." Jancis Robinson

"This wine is very aromatic, it almost jumps out of the glass with all its tropical fruits, citrus peel, flowers and spices. On the palate it is full and rich with a generous sweetness, but balanced by freshness and lively acidity. Very attractive and well made. Creamy on the finish." James Suckling

"The Gewürztraminer Vendemmia Tardiva Terminum is a thick, glossy wine with sweet glycerin that wraps over the palate. This fragrant dessert wine boasts aromas of tuberose, marigold and Indian spice. The acidity is lacking, but the wine delivers a big dollop of sweetness over a full-bodied finish. It ages in barrique for 14 months, bringing in marzipan and roasted almond." Wine Advocate
