The 2019 wine grape vintage in Tasmania was extremely compacted, with a very early finish. The vintage produced excellent quality with balanced fruit and acid, although yields were significantly down for certain varieties as a result of the very dry conditions.
This wine shows its traditional complex nose of lychee, rose petal and musk. The palate is luscious and persistent, with melon, guava and lychee flavours balanced by an excellent line of underlying acidity, resulting in a wine with a refreshing, clean finish.
While ideal with sushi, shellfish or Asian style cuisine, this rare German variety has the ability to complement an unusually wide range of foods. Regrettably stocks are very limited, with less than 220 cases produced.
