Gewurztraminer Herrenweg De Turckheim Vieilles Vignes 2007 for practice tasting...

Who says we can not match business & pleasure?

This one made me lose the plot.  For a moment, I forgot that I was practicing.  In fact, it is surely a sin to practice with a wine like this...

From the outset, the nose is deep and compact with very subtle aromas coming to the fore. One can only imagine its intensity so reserved it is on the nose.  Of course, I heard that it is the shy ones who are the most dangerous ones... On tasting, it quickly becomes clear that it is another thing altogether...beautfully mouthfilling w/ a caressing velvetiness & devilishly seductive.  Suddenly, the aromas explode in a bouquet of oriental spices, tropical fruits, & exotic flowers.  This is when the plot was lost...  Still on the palate, it transports to another place & in another moment.  A sensual experience of another dimension... On the finish, lingering like a tender sigh...  Perfumed, warming, & stirring the yearning of another moment...

Beautful in all aspects.
