La Petite Mort Gentil Qvervi

The white blossom and “grapey” aromas of the Muscat provide a base line and the rose and lychee of the Gewurz sit on top to create exotic layers of fruit, spice and flowers. But this is not a sweet wine, and the dryness of the palate with the tannin from the skin contact reigns in the sweet-seeming aromas and tightens up the oily-glycerol tendencies of the Gewurz.
