The 2008 Gewurztraminer Kolbenhof is one of the richer, more expansive Gewurztraminers readers are likely to come across in Alto Adige. Expressive layers of mango, passion fruit, ginger, flowers and spices jump out of the glass as this harmonious, impeccable wine shows its pedigree. The finish is long, pure and refined. This is an exceptional effort from Hofstatter and proprietor Martin Foradori. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2016. This is a beautiful set of new releases from proprietor Martin Foradori Hofstatter.
