【Product Story】

The 2020 Bespoke label Gewurztraminer is sourced from the Single vineyard that surrounds the winery on Pauls Road. This small vineyard of 1905 vines was planted in 2013 using two clones of Gewurztraminer; 456 & 457. The vineyard soil would be best described as loam over alluvial gravels, which produce vines of moderate vigour and fruit with great flavour intensity.
This wine is clean and flavorsome, hand-picked on March 21st, 2020. Overtime this wine will develop some intriguing honeyed notes, and this should match nicely with the inherent fresh fruit qualities.

【Tasting Notes】

Colour / Appearance: Mid-straw, with a green tinge and a bright clarity.
Aroma / Bouquet: A classic, varietal mix of rose petal, lychee, Turkish delight and ginger spice.
Palate: The palate is full –bodied with a rich, oily texture, filled with varietal fruit and spice flavours that coat the mouth and persist on the long, silky finish.
Cellaring: We believe after cellaring for many years, the Gewürztraminer will gain varietal and honeyed bottle-age complexity. However, the wine is already in good balance, and can be enjoyed immediately.
Food Match: This wine is made to be enjoyed best with food. We recommend dishes with aromatic spices and flavours, such as Moroccan, Thai or Chinese dishes.
