Spirits Wines

This wine was made from late-picked Traminer, grown in the hills near Eden Valley. Harvested in May at maximum maturity, this dessert style of wine has great intensity of flavour and the potential to age gracefully for many years.The bouquet exhibits an array of raisin and orange peel aromas complexed with quince and dried mango overtones. A hint of rose oil and marmalade also add to the sumptuous bouquet.The palate shows an initial explosion of muscat and apricot flavours, followed by a delightful luscious and slippery middle palate. Ripe quince and marmalade add to the richness and almost bittersweet flavours. The oily richness however is balanced with a fresh, sorbet citrus acidity that prevents any cloying sweetness.
