Gewurztraminer

Deep gold with flecks of yellow, the colour of our 2013 Gewurztraminer reminds us of the golden glow of the sun. Candied fruit aromas of pineapple, mango and tangerine all speak of concentration and purity. A number of picking passes over the season has enabled us to capture a range of grape flavours – the later picks are noteworthy in that they contribute amazing 'Bunch Selection' characters of dried apricot and ginger marmalade. The palate continues building from entry to finish – supple and sappy but refined, pure and long to the end. Fruit flavours span the spectrum for Gewurztraminer: lychee, apricot and muscatel. It is difficult to resist the youthful charm of this delicious wine but bottle age will progress the perceived richness and add other nuances of spicy complexity. We suggest this process will continue for up to ten years.
