Jean-Baptiste Adam 2005 Sélection de Grains Nobles Gewurztraminer
- Editors' Choice
- Online Exclusive
- $90
With its distinctive bouquet of rose petals and lychee fruit, this dessert wine’s Gewürztraminer character shines clearly through a modest veil of botrytis. It’s sweet and viscous without being overly heavy, with a long, spice-driven finish. Tremendous stuff, with a wonderful sense of harmony and balance.

Jean-Baptiste Adam 2006 Vendanges Tardives Gewurztraminer
- Editors' Choice
- $50
Cotton candy notes overlap with licorice and spice aromas to create a very enticing bouquet. The luxurious, concentrated palate serves up flavors of brown sugar and honey. Set aside a good amount of time to enjoy the finish.

Jean-Baptiste Adam 2005 Vendanges Tardives Pinot Gris
- $50
Although one could wish for more aromatic complexity in a Vendanges Tardives, notes of lemon poppy-seed cake are very satisfying. The intense, layered palate shows notes of candied fruit and spice and leads to a long, lush finish.

Jean-Baptiste Adam 2011 Reserve Gewurztraminer
- $22
There is plenty of character in this attractive wine. It has a fine balance between the rich natural spice of the Gewürztraminer and a fresh, citrus-driven edge, giving it a fine, textured character, worth aging a year.

Jean-Baptiste Adam 2008 Pinot Blanc

Attractive gold color. Intense aromas of ripe stone fruit fruit. Strong earthy minerality and a hint of honeysuckle adding complexity. Broad persistent flavors across the palate with focused minerality and an earthy savoriness that is beautifully balanced with the ripe fruit. Crisp and taut with a long, layered finish.

Jean-Baptiste Adam 2011 Reserve Pinot Gris
The Adam family has been producing wine since 1674, a legacy that is distilled into this delicate, ripe, and fruity wine. It has an elegant balance between its acidity and its dried apricot flavor. Give this attractive wine a few months more in bottle.

Jean-Baptiste Adam 2002 Grand Cru Wineck-Schlossberg Riesling
- $40
This wine is finely perfumed, with flavors of almonds, currants and white berries. There is good intensity and the wine should age well over the next five years or more. Imported by Chapin Cellars.

Jean-Baptiste Adam 2006 Kaefferkopf Vieilles Vignes Riesling
- $39
Complex honey notes grab you by the shirt collar and pull you into the glass. The palate, though well-balanced and showing good concentration, doesn’t have the same multi-dimensionality as the nose but finishes with a lingering apricot note.
