About

Ratings:

92

"Pale color. Knockout nose melds subtle floral nuances, spices and cured meat. Sweet, pliant and creamy; this is downright open and accessible compared to the Spiegel, offering explosive yellow fruit and spice flavors. The creamy quality carries through on the unusually smooth but spicy finish."

92 Wine Enthusiast

"This is sugary sweet with a rich spice-cake character, delicate acidity and a full, comfortable style. It’s an opulent but balanced wine for dessert with a pleasantly astringent, tight aftertaste. -R.V."

92 David Schildknecht - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

"Celery seed, caraway, rose petal, heliotrope, smoked meat, and sea breezes scent Dirler's 2007 Gewurztraminer Kessler, which puts on a polished, creamily-rich palate performance, nut paste, liquid rose perfume, caraway, black pepper, and mineral salts carrying into a lingering, soothing, sweet, subtly complex finish."

"Jean-Pierre Dirler was another of those growers to express delight at the 2007 vintage with its wide window of harvest opportunities, but to have sold off or declassified much of his family's production in 2006. It bears repeating that this estate's international profile is not nearly as high as is the quality of wine that have issued from it routinely since at least the mid-1980s, when I first visited here. I did not, unfortunately, have chance to taste quite the entire 2007 Dirler-Cade collection, and canvassed only a small selection of their in any event diminished number of 2006s."
