Winery notes (2023 Vintage)
"The 2023 Seifried Nelson Gewurztraminer has a beautifully aromatic nose with tell-tale varietal aromas of roses, Turkish delight and hints of ginger. The palate is equally flavoursome with well balanced fruit concentration and an off dry finish leaving lingering flavours! Delicious.
Gewürztraminer is an early ripening variety with an aromatic, fragrant bouquet. It is naturally a low yielding vine which can produce wonderful concentration and flavour. After harvest the grapes were de-stemmed and left for a brief period of skin contact before pressing. The clear juice was inoculated with a pure yeast strain and then a cool, temperature-controlled fermentation began. After fermentation the wine had a period on yeast lees before it was racked, blended, clarified and stabilised prior to bottling in June 2023."
5 Stars & 93/100 Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, July 2023 (2023 Vintage)
"It’s classically expressed on the nose showing mango, lychee, rose petal and warm spice aromas, leading to a delectably expressed palate that’s juicy and beautifully rounded. Supple and silky with refreshing acidity, making it highly enjoyable. At its best: now to 2027."
