Score 88/100 · Drink 2000-2025, Pierre Rovani, Jun 2000

The 1998 Gewurztraminer Reserve Personnelle has a flower and botrytis-scented nose. On the palate, roses, assorted flowers, and red fruits can be discerned in this well-delineated, and focused, medium-bodied wine. Its long, mineral-laden finish does reveal the alcoholic heat evidenced in many 1998s. Anticipated maturity: now-2005. Importer: Vineyard Brands, Birmingham, AL; tel (205) 980-8802.

Subtle aromas of flowers, spices and lemon on the withdrawn nose. Juicy, spicy and chewy in the mouth; less expressive than the '97 but quite fresh. Rather suave wine, with good acidity to buffer the 20+ grams of sugar. Lingering, fresh finish.
