Miscellaneous Notes
A nice batch of wines from Alsace. Personally I had no problem what so ever to recognise the different grapes... probably because I knew which the wines were. Being serious, I really thought that the Riesling and the Gewurztraminer were very typical to their grapes. The Tokay Pinot Gris and the Pinot d'Alsace were harder.

The Tokay Pinot Gris and the Riesling were my favourites.

Once again, Systembolaget did not manage to deliver wines that, according to their price list, were available. The ordered Tokay was from 1993 and a 1995 was delivered. The ordered Gewurztraminer was a 1992 and a 1996 was delivered. This happens too often to be regarded as an unfortunate misspelling. Systembolaget, it is time to take wine seriously! You must understand that a Trimbach Gewurztraminer 1992 and a Trimbach Gewurztraminer 1996 are two completely different wines!

The Verdict
Tokay Pinot Gris Riesling Pinot d'Alsace Gewurztraminer
