Flowers, passion fruit, lime peel, honey and acacia blossoms are just some of the nuances that flow from the estate’s 2007 Gewurztraminer Nussbaumer. The wine is simply gorgeous in the way it captures varietal expression in a pure, elegant style. Notes of crushed rocks and minerals linger on the long, clean finish in this full-bodied yet wonderfully balanced wine. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2011. Tramin makes a remarkable range of wines. The entry-level bottlings are reviewed in Issue 178. These top of the line selections merit considerable attention. A Leonardo Lo Cascio Selection, Winebow, Montvale, NJ; tel. (201) 445-0620
