Grape

Gewürztraminer

Origin
Saint Clair source their Gewürztraminer grapes from a single site known as 'Block 12' or the Lone Gum vineyard in the lower Omaka Valley. They are allowed maximum hang-time on the vine without developing botrytis, to maintain the more youthful fruit characters.
Taste
The nose is pungent and tropical, with an unmistakably rosy, Turkish delight note. Lightly unctuous in texture, with a palate-coating sweetness offset by a drying, acidic finish.
Enjoy
Try with smoked meats, or with ripened soft cheeses such as Taleggio.

    Fantastic

    This is an outstanding wine! It has an unusual taste, but in a very, very good way. It is relatively expensive but it is well worth spending a few more quid to appreciate this wonderful wine. Enjoy!
