2020 TWR Single-Vineyard 5182 Toru
TWR
All fruit for this wine was hand-picked and then hand-sorted. All parcels were destemmed, lightly crushed and then pressed, some parcels had lengthier skin-contact time. The wine was all co-fermented. Co-fermentation is an integral 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.
This 2020 Toru 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 lovely creamy texture, plus a mineral edge which gives it great length of flavour. - Anna Flowerday

Made with Gewürztraminer, Riesling & Pinot Gris – this is an exemplary wine and master class in co-fermentation, style and balance. Aromas and flavours of exotic tropical fruits, fresh citrus and apple, white flowers and spice. Equally intense and fruity on the palate with myriad flavours of fresh white fleshed fruits, citrus and tropical. Refreshing acid line carries flavours and a firm youthful mouthfeel through to a lengthy finish. Best drinking from purchase and through 2025.

A field blend of Gewürztraminer, Riesling and Pinot Gris that were co-fermented. A fragrant, appealing wine with a silken texture and deliciously lingering fruit and floral finish. Gewürztraminer is the dominant variety. An impressive wine.

Sweetly fragrant peach, mango, lemon and pear aromas lead to a textural palate that has such fleshy, richly flavored tropical and stone-fruit flavors. A blend of gewurztraminer, riesling and pinot gris. From biodynamically grown grapes. Drink now. Screw cap.

A co-fermented blend of Gewürztraminer (67%), Riesling (22%) and Pinot Gris (11%), the 2020 Toru features floral, gingery aromatics, intense flavors of red apples and lychees, plus some pear skin-like tannins. It's medium to full-bodied with just a hint of residual sugar (six grams per litre), and there's a lingering, slightly peppery, anise-tinged finish.
