Whites : Gewürztraminer
Vinoptima Noble Late Harvest 2004 (375ml) Gisborne, New Zealand 100% Gewürztraminer Tasting Notes: The 2004 Vinoptima Gewurztraminer Noble Late Harvest is yellow-gold in colour and exhibits an alluring sweet botrytis aroma. A fragrant array of exotic and dried fruits including figs, dried apricots and Andromeda dates are set against a background of mandarin. The palate is intense and luscious with butterscotch toffee, Manuka honey and zesty lemon/lime and mandarin flavours. The finish is tart with a slight bitter-sweet tang. The wine has a distinct oily texture that holds the layers of flavours and coats the tongue, giving the wine and incredibly long finish. A harmonious and hedonistic wine that is deliciously sweet and smooth. |
