A consistently attractive wine. Pale and ripely perfumed, this Gewurztraminer is a medium-dry style with mouth-filling body and a vibrant array of pear, peach, lychee and spice flavours, showing excellent delicacy and depth.

 

Top 12 Dish Magazine, October 2018
Daniel and Ursula Schwarzenbach have an enviable track record with Gewurztraminer and this vintage is no exception.

“It’s very varietal, with good solid white nectarine, peach and sweet apple characters. Very easy to drink“ said Cameron Douglas MS.

Yvonne Lorkin enthused “The nose is very sexy. I love the Turkish delight, ginger and cardamom characters and its luscious textures.“

This Gewurztraminer is typical of the Blackenbrook style, beautiful winemaking that delivers clean flavours true to the varietal.  

In this case the lovely ripe fruit aromas tease the senses but the flavours deliver on the promise.  Lively spiced pear, lychee and soft ginger flavours abound in the rich but not over-powering palate, a medium to dry style wine that delivers excellent value.
