93 Points - Cameron Douglas MS Shout Summer World of Wine
"Fragrances of sweet fruits and white spices then exotic fruits, apple and white apricot, roses and fresh aromatic herbs. The natural herbal quality of the variety adds to the texture delivered through acidity and phenolics. Delicious and ready with best drinking from 2022 through 2026"

Winery note
"This is a single vineyard wine made with fruit from our Rapaura Road vineyard, next to the winery. The vines were planted in 1995 and while the planting plan is long since lost, we believe there are up to seven different clones and rootstock combinations in the vineyard. The fruit was machine harvested in two passes. The picks were fermented separately and then blended back together. The early pick lends acidity to the wine and a strong ginger flavour. The later pick has more classic Gewurztraminer characters – lychee and lemongrass."
