Léon Beyer Gewürztraminer Comtes d'Eguisheim 2009
£52.62 (Inc. VAT bot. 75 cl.) / North Ireland
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
While I found the “regular” Beyer 2009 Gewurztraminer disappointingly lacking in mid-palate, their 2009 Gewurztraminer Comtes d’Eguisheim is at the very least more formidable. Peat, celery root, and rose petal on the nose have their counterparts on a voluminous, subtly oily palate. Pungent herbs, toasted pecan, and black pepper lend grip to a slightly warm and very faintly gum-numbing finish. I would want to revisit this within 3-4 years as I am unconvinced as to its aging potential. (The Beyer 2009 Gewurztraminer Vendange Tardive – for now at least – lacked enough offsetting acidity or strength of personality to really emerge from under the weight of its residual sugar.)
