2016 TWR Single-Vineyard 5182 'Toru' [organic, biodynamic, vegan]
TWR
All fruit for this wine was hand-picked and then hand-sorted. All parcels were destemmed, crushed and then pressed, some parcels had lengthier skin-contact time. The wine was all co-fermented. All parcels spent considerable time on lees after ferment for added texture & complexity. Co-fermentation is a key part of making Toru as it makes the three varieties much more integrated with each other. This wine has not been fined and is suitable for vegans and vegetarians and anyone else who loves authentic, hand-made wines.
Intensely perfumed, this wine has an intriguing nose with notes of mango, fresh citrus, white florals and exotic spices. These lead into a multi-layered palate with flavours of mango, citrus, red apple and lychee with a lingering spiciness. The palate has excellent fruit concentration and weight with a lovely creamy texture and a mineral edge which gives it great length of flavour.

Marlborough gewürztraminer, riesling and pinot gris as a co-fermented blend. Aroma, texture, spice and a sizzle of citrussy/stonefruit-like flavour through the finish. It’s easy to knock over a few glasses and yet it has a bit of class too. A mouthfilling white.
