Tasting Notes
Tasting Notes
Shaky Bridge's 2012 Gewürztraminer has a wonderful deep colour, with a great mix of acidity and fruit sweetness ending with a refreshing palate. Filled with spiced apricot and rose petal floral notes, Dave has left a touch of residual sugar in the wine to balance the natural acidity and provide a beautifully rounded texture.
Vinification
Hand-harvested from Shaky Bridge's Home Block in late April 2012 the grapes were carefully de-stemmed and crushed, then fermented in stainless steel tanks for a brief 24 hour cold soak. Dave fermented the wine in colder temperatures, preserving the highly aromatic characteristics of the grapes.
Best Enjoyed With
On any occasion. Serve with mild and soft cheese, spicy food, rich fish, poultry and sweet desserts.
