Dry River Gewurztraminer 'Lovat Vineyard' 2004 750ml
| "The fruit from this block's vines is starting to show more spice that is derived from the increasing vine age. The wine is lemon-gold with a lightly honeyed nose of orange zest and blossoms, creme brulee, Turkish delight and some fruitcake spice. It has an oily texture with a firm backbone and robust flavours from lush pear to white peach, orange peel, cloves and comb honey. You lose little by drinking Gewurztraminer earlier than most other varieties, although a recent vertical tasting suggested they can be surprisingly long-lived. Our suggestion is for cellaring 1-5 years." Winemaker's notes.
