Gourmet Traveller
"94 pts, 5/5 Stars ... Delicious gewurzt with a flavour profile and texture that suggests Alsace rather than Marlborough. Turkish delight and anise-spice flavours with a super-delicate and creamy texture. Great length without hardness or astringency." -- Bob Campbell
Winemaker's Notes
"The nose has fragrant rose petals and candied fruit. The palate is full with generous lychee and Turkish delight character with a long succulent finish. A very rich dry style of Gewurztraminer showing complex layers of flavours."
Technical Notes
"Natural yeasts and inoculated ferments were used to bring further complexity. A portion was also fermented in older French barriques with lees stirring to provide a softer textured portion to the blend. Residual Sugar 2g/l; TA 3.5g/l; 13.9% alc."
