Helfrich 2007 Steinklotz Grand Cru Riesling
- $25
Attractively perfumed Riesling, its fresh acidity matched by white currant fruits and a tight edge of minerality. Good, crisp final brightness.

A very pretty wine, with intense aromatics of crushed flowers and passionfruit. The palate is flavorful, crisp and refreshing, winding up with a tangy, citrus-accented finish. Serve with light fish preparations.

Helfrich 2008 Steinklotz Grand Cru Pinot Gris
- $25
Smoky, dried fruit-flavored wine. There is some sweetness, its ripe currant flavors boosted by a broad texture and some spice. The acidity seems to be missing.

Helfrich 2007 Steinklotz Grand Cru Gewurztraminer
- $25
Exotic perfumes and fruits dominate this wine. Its flavors are all about perfumes, a texture that only hints at minerality. No question about the variety here.

Helfrich 2008 Steinklotz Grand Cru Gewurztraminer
This is a soft, rounded wine that has ripe tropical fruit, lychee and mango notes, accompanied by just enough acidity. While it is fruity, a more mature character is beginning to show.

Helfrich 2005 Steinklotz Grand Cru Gewurztraminer
- $25
This wine opens with a sexy, enticing nose of exotic spices but the palate disappoints, with its one-dimensional citrus flavor. Nonetheless, it is light on its feet for a Gewürz, with just medium alcohol and fresh acidity.

- Online Exclusive
- $12
Pleasant, with broad appeal, this wine opens with Poire William, mineral and rose notes, followed by Asian spice on the tongue. There’s noticeable sweetness here but a spicy character keeps it from being cloying. Serve with Pad Thai. Drink now.

Soft wine, light in texture, some spice and tropical fruits. There is freshness, well integrated into an attractive, ready-to-drink wine. Screwcap.
