2018 TWR Single-Vineyard 5182 Gewürztraminer
TWR
Te Whare Ra has a longstanding reputation for producing one of New Zealand’s finest Gewürztraminers, and much of the credit must go to the vineyard here. This wine is produced solely from 14 rows in the old block which were planted in 1979 and are some of the oldest vines in Marlborough at 39 years of age.
All fruit for this wine was hand-picked and then hand-sorted. The fruit was de-stemmed and gently crushed, then given some good skin contact time before being slowly and gently air-bag pressed. The wine was fermented entirely in stainless steel. The juice was fermented very slowly at cool temperatures, to retain aromatics. All parcels spent time on lees post-ferment, for added texture and complexity. This wine wasn't fined and is suitable for vegans and vegetarians and anyone else who loves authentic, hand-made wines. - Anna Flowerday, TWR

Fresh, floral Gewürztraminer with appealingly pure Turkish Delight, anise, potpourri and subtle herbal flavours. Made in a medium-dry style, but with a reasonably drying finish and a little alcohol warmth.
