Winery notes (2024 Vintage)
"It has an alluring light golden hue. The bouquet leaps from the glass, a volley of ginger, cinnamon, lychee and lavender at first, soon opening to reveal more intricate mineral and earthy notes, underlain with a hint of gun smoke. In the mouth it is rich and multi-layered, augmented by unobtrusive sweetness and a simmering phenolic drive, that flows across the palate, leading to a prolonged and spicy close. Due to the varietal intensity of Gewürz, some additional winemaking techniques have been employed to give the wine extra complexity. Skin contact offers increased structure, while oak aging on lees has added mouthfeel."
5 Stars & 95/100 Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, December 2024 (2024 Vintage)
"Gorgeously fragrant and enticing, the bouquet shows mango, lychee, Turkish Delight, orange peel, and warm spice aromas, leading to a concentrated palate offering creamy texture and plush mouthfeel. Wonderfully composed and expressed with splendid complexity, making it hugely appealing. At its best: now to 2034."
Rated Excellent & 94/100 Cameron Douglas MS, December 2024 (2024 Vintage)
"Totally delicious, ripe, fresh, fruity and loaded with ideas of white spices and baked apple, white fleshed stone fruits and citrus spice. Lovely weight and creaminess contrasted by acidity then flavours that reflect the bouquet. Balanced, taut, youthful and well made with best drinking from day of purchase through 2029."
