"It's instantly appealing on the nose showing pineapple, lychee, orange peel and rose petal aromas, followed by a succulent palate offering classic Gewürz flavours combined with rounded mouthfeel and refreshing acidity. At its best: now to 2024" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Apr 2022
Delicate notes of citrus, spice and rose petal. A complex wine with layers of lychee, citrus and spice, leading to a generous mid-palate and a long finish. Drinking well now, this wine will continue to reward for the next three to five years from vintage date.
Grapes were sourced from two vineyards in Marlborough’s Wairau Valley. The vines are low cropping and immaculately tended to produce fruit with intense varietal characters. The grapes were harvested in the cool of the night at the peak of flavour development. The grape must was left to soak on the skins for an extended period to assist with extraction of flavours. Post pressing, settled clear juice was fermented with yeast selected to enhance the varietal expression.
Food Pairing: A perfect match for Asian style pork.

Really enjoying this wine. You do have to drink it at the right temperature though. Slightly chilled.

Very enjoyable

Not a heavyweight but has lovely lush aromas and flavours and has settled with a little age on it. A snip at the price!

This is a very nice Gewuertztraminer for the price offered.

This is a great example of one of my favourite varieties. Medium weight and off dry it has the quintessential aromatics and lush fruit on the pallet without imposing phenolics, the benefit of a little bottle age. It's a snip at the price, a no-brainer!

A lovely gewurz. Shouldn't age much longer. The age is coming through a bit, otherwise would have given 5 stars.
