Description
- Off-dry style
- Lychee & rosewater
- Turkish delight
- Stewed pear
This wine has classic Gewürztraminer aromas of rosewater and lychees with a stewed pear and cinnamon spice bouquet. The palate is delightfully balanced, with sweet flavours of Turkish delight, cinnamon and lychee. This wine is drinking well now but can be cellared for up to 5 years.
The grapes for this wine came entirely from the Campbell Brook vineyard in Hawke’s Bay.
The grapes for this wine were machine harvested and transported to the Riverview winery where they were pressed to stainless steel for fermentation. Yeast used was primarily QA23. An off-dry style was achieved by stopping the fermentation with a little sugar remaining. No oak aging or malolactic fermentation was employed for this wine. The wine was tankered to the Katikati winery where finishing was carried out.
Food Pairing: Enjoy with Asian inspired meals.
