| Palate | Dry and medium bodied with more of the floral and rose flavours, some ripe peach and apricot fruit and a touch of nutmeg and spice towards the finish. Great balance again and very enjoyable. |

| Robert Parker | 93 Points - "The 2017 Alto Adige Gewürztraminer Nussbaumer is beautifully fragrant and redolent of honeysuckle and tropical fruit. The honey-like intensity is incredible. This medium-weight white shows a distant trace of residual sugar. It would make a nice pairing with rice pudding and raisins. An ample 65,000 bottles were made." |
