Pewsey Vale Eden Valley Gewürztraminer 2009

Gewürztraminer

For over 150 years Pewsey Vale Vineyard has produced aromatic white wines of exceptional style, varietal flavour and consistency. Pewsey Vale Gewürztraminer captures the essence of our cool climate vineyard with delightful fragrance and a long pristine palate. Winemaking is simple and natural with hand picked grapes whole bunch pressed directly to older oak barrels for fermentation by indigenous yeasts. The wine stayed in barrels for nearly three months with regular batonnage before blending. With a slight spicy cinnamon rose water fragrance on the nose the flavours of this wine are full of exotic perfumed rose petals. The palate is fine but unexpectedly textured, finishing long and fresh. The 2009 Gewürztraminer should cellar well for the medium to long term - up to ten years.
