Nicely matured rounder style of dry Gewurtztraminer. What is very nice despite being dry and low acidity it does not have the problem with bitterness sometimes associated with Gewurtztraminers with low acidity and low sugar. For interest you can compare these notes to notes from May 2013, when I tasted the same wine, but 2009 vintage, which was even hotter than 2006.
