Gewurztraminer Fronholz Sel. De Grains Nobles

The concentration remains but the register has changed; lying between very ripe pears and nuts – Brazil nuts and pecans, almonds, and not far from walnuts either; at the same time, a sweetness evoking sweet almond oil, hazelnut, a white peach halo, sensual white flowers – opened wide, white roses in particular, a touch of menthol excites the nose, with a tendency to swell, bringing freshness and energy; the nuts now combine with white chocolate, a touch of crème fraîche; broom flowers add to the growing charm of the whole, a note of vanilla; and finally there’s something like gougères, or even cream puffs.
