Inside that distinctive, tall, Vin d'Alsace bottle, is a pretty fantastic little wine. Those of you who know me well will find it somewhat surprising that I would gush over a medium-dry wine, but gush I must. Intensely floral, moderately fruity with hints of peach and apricot, and deliciously golden in color, the 2006 Cuvée Bacchus Pfaffenheim Gewurztraminer is a pleasure to savour.
Here in Ontario, at least, this is a Vintages release at the LCBO so if you want to enjoy this wine, you'll have to move fast. And at just under $20 Canadian, it's well worth the price.
