Gewurztraminer 2020

$35.00 inc. GST

Vibrant acidity underpinning lychees and tropical fruit flavours complemented by a rose petal aroma.
Vintage notes
Another grape variety that survived the smoke event of 2019/20. This Gewürztraminer is made in a dry style, which goes against the grain of typical German style Gewürztraminers which are quite sweet. Gewürztraminer is all about a balance of flavours. If the grapes are allowed to overripen the wine becomes flabby and oily with low acidity. To counter this we pick the fruit as early as possible so the wine can be made at a lower alcohol level with good acidity underpinning the tropical fruit flavours. Like Riesling, Gewürztraminer expresses terroir (the land or soil in which it is grown) easily and in the six vintages of making this wine from the Vintner’s Daughter vineyard we are seeing a consistent wine style emerge with vibrant acidity underpinning lychees and tropical fruit flavours and a rose petal aroma.

  • Syrah 2017

    Syrah 2017

    Intense pepper and vanilla aroma, red cherry, plum and cranberry flavours, lively acidity and a dried herb savouriness on the finish. Grippy tannins provide ageing potential. 

    Vintage notes

    This Syrah is a blend of two different blocks of Shiraz grapes on the property-our grafted Shiraz vines and the vigorously growing vines directly outside the cellar door. The fruit was hand-picked and processed within 12 hours on-site. A 2 day cold soak prior to fermentation and the selection of a cultured yeast ensured maximum colour and flavour extraction. The wine was then gently basket pressed to older French oak barrels and allowed to mature for 16 months.

  • Shiraz Viognier 2018

    Shiraz Viognier 2018

    Intense perfume reminiscent of blackberries, vanilla and lavender. Luxurious and elegant with a silky mouthfeel, flavours of black pepper, stewed plums and cherries and a lingering soft finish.

    Vintage notes

    A hot season intensified the flavours of our Shiraz grapes and led to concentrated blackberry and stewed plum characters. A cold soak prior to fermentation and the inclusion of 20% whole bunches in the ferment ensured maximum colour and flavour extraction. Cofermented with 3% viognier, also grown at the Vintner’s vineyard. The wine was plunged daily by hand to extract maximum flavour and colour from the skins. The grapes were pressed in our stainless steel basket press to a mixture of old and new French oak barrels and allowed to mature for 14 months.

  • Pinot Noir 2019

    Pinot Noir 2019

    “Old World” style pinot—a beautiful robust wine with bright raspberries, dark cherry fruits and a spicy earthy undertone. Hints of violets and dried herbs in the bouquet. Vintage notes This fruit was picked in early March in the cool of the morning. It was destalked, gently crushed and allowed to undergo a cold soak for four days before being inoculated with a cultured yeast. About 20% was fermented in whole bunches—this is where fermentation is allowed to occur inside the berry. All of these techniques contributed to complex flavour development and aromatics. The wine was pressed to a mixture of new and older French oak casks for 12 months maturation.
