95/100
Lush, rich and concentrated Gewurztraminer made in a distinctly Alsace style with complex floral, exotic fruit and Oriental spice flavours. This bold, flavoursome and silken-textured wine thoroughly deserves its premium price tag. Made from Waipara’s oldest Gewurztraminer vines. This is a powerful statement that takes New Zealand Gewurztraminer to new heights. A first release and a flying start.
