The 1998 Gewurztraminer Wintzenheim offers a deep, spiced apple, pear, and juniper berry-scented nose. Medium-bodied, broad, and expressive, it is crammed with spices, almond cookies, raspberries, and potpourri. This highly expressive, intense wine is silky-textured and enormously appealing. Drink it over the next 5 years.
