2005 Domaine Zind Humbrecht Gewurztraminer Herrenweg de Turckheim
Can you remember the name of this wine? Branding generally is not common with French and German wines in particular, which is not entirely a bad thing. The modern wine world is full of gimmicks and ways to try to get you to remember their brand. On the flip side, try to remember this one when you are in the aisle of your wine shop. Zind Humbrect, like a lot of Alsatian producers, tends to produce a variety of styles under nearly identical labels or "cuvees". One of them was a real charmer: in their 2005 Herrenweg de Turckheim we tasted rose petals, peaches, and green apples as well as a concentrated stony, gravelly quality.
