Winery notes (2024 Vintage)
"One Vineyard. Three Germanic Luminaries… Düfte Punkt is an aromatic paradigm-shift. A seamless single vineyard field blend of spicy Gewürztraminer, precise Riesling and textural Kerner (Weißer Herold). Striking tropical and turkish delight aromas introduce a complex palate showing lychees, mandarins, minerality and a lingering powder-puff of florals. The Fechner brothers' applauded vineyard in the Eden Valley is unique for both its spectacular aromatics and its unique varietal mix. This wines screams food and good times… and now the incredible 2024 release is here!"
5 Stars & 94/100 Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, June 2026 (2024 Vintage)
"Gorgeously fruited and enticing, the bouquet showcases pineapple, mango, lychee, grapefruit, and subtle spice notes. The palate delivers succulent fruit intensity and a fleshy texture, splendidly supported by bright acidity, leading to a lingering, delectable finish. A field blend of Gewurztraminer, Riesling, & Kerner. At its best: now to 2032."
93/100 Dave Brookes, James Halliday's Wine Companion (2024 Vintage)
"A vinous tryptic of riesling, gewurztraminer and kerner from the Fechner vineyard in the Eden Valley. Head-spinning aromatics of bath salts, Turkish delight, those wee boiled lollies, citrus fruits, rose petals, pressed flowers, soft spice, pouch tobacco and jasmine. Some nice palate weight and texture here, dialed in nicely with the stony acidity and maybe just a splash of yellow plum as it fades. I really like these sort of styles of wine. Bonza!"
92/100 Jeni Port, WinePilot.com (2024 Vintage)
"A co-ferment of Riesling, Gewürztraminer and Kerner, a German grape now making its home in the Eden Valley. While it’s not noted on the wine’s label, this is off-dry. The aromatics are delightful and welcoming in aromas of lychee, passionfruit pulp, lime peel, lime cordial, lemon and spice. The touch of spring wildflowers adds a fresh note. The palate sits in the apple, citrus and pear spectrum with spices sprinkled throughout. Boasts a gentle sweetness combined with a warm, lemon curd texture matched to juicy, fresh acidity. Well-suited to drinking now and enjoying with Thai food. Düfte Punkt translates to “fragrant point” and is one of a series of Punkt aromatic whites released by Chaffey Bros."
91/100 James Suckling (2024 Vintage)
"Aromas of rose petals, pomelo, quince, apple blossoms and spices. The palate is light-bodied with a nice texture, a slight phenolic grip and a touch of residual sugar. A field blend of riesling, gewurztraminer and kerner."
91/100 Andrew Caillard MW (2024 Vintage)
"Pale straw hue. Beautifully lifted exotic aromas, stone fruit, musk, frangipani and acacia florals touch of pear. Lovely vinosity and character – stone fruit, rosewater and musk. Slinky texture with touch of spice on the finish. Modern field blend of interest."
