For my birthday dinner, to complement the scallops with orzo and caramelized carrots, we had a bottle of wine - a 1998 Marc Tempe Rodelsberg Gewurztraminer.
I've had some really tremendous white wines before, and this one definitely qualified. It's a common misperception that you cannot age a white wine.
This one had a beautiful golden colour, wonderful smooth mouth feel, heady aromas you typically expect in a Gewurz, and on the palate had an extremely long finish and hints of minerals.
A lovely wine. I wish I had 10 more in the cellar.
