Main Divide

Main Divide Gewurztraminer 2018 North Canterbury

Vibrant, varietal, fruity, spicy and distinctive bouquet. Flavours of white fleshed stone fruits, apple, fresh lychee fruit, aromatic herbs and some fine phenolic tension. Weighty, fleshy, nice acid line and a whisper of youthful spritz add length, depth and complexity. A delicious wine with flavour, length and appeal. Great with all sorts of food, balanced and well made. Drink now and through 2022.
