Domaine Weinbach - Clos des Capucins Gewürztraminer Alsace Cuvée Laurence 2004 (1.5L) Yountville Red of medium intensity withCritical Acclaim 90 points Wine Advocate Dramatically different from its 2005 counterpart, the 2004 Gewurztraminer Cuvee Laurence is scented with celery seed, citrus rind, rose petals, and narcissus. Lacking the richness of the 2005, it partly makes up for this in sheer juiciness of fruit, and elegant length, remarkably refreshing for its grape of origin not to mention for a wine of considerable sweetness.
