The 2005 Gewurztraminer Comtes d'Eguisheim smells of toasted pecans, honey, tangerine rind and smoked meats. In the mouth this exhibits unusual refreshment to go with its richness and breadth, and there is never a hint of heaviness, ponderousness, or heat. The finish here is a glorious display of what is possible with this grape and in the fantastic terroirs of Alsace: fully dry, powerful, and intriguingly complex along carnal, herbal, fruit and mineral axes. Brown spices, sugar snap peas, tangerine, peach, pralines, salts, iodine, and honey are among a few of the flavors that will be found in the oceanic depths of this candidate for two to three decades of cellar evolution. Score - 93. (David Schildknecht, erobertparker.com, Feb. 2008)
