Clearview (Hawkes Bay) 2022 Coastal Gewurztraminer

Hunters (Marlborough) 2023 Gewurztraminer

93 Points - Cameron Douglas MS Shout Summer World of Wine

Winery note
"This is a single vineyard wine made with fruit from our Rapaura Road vineyard, next to the winery. The vines were planted in 1995 and while the planting plan is long since lost, we believe there are up to seven different clones and rootstock combinations in the vineyard. The fruit was machine harvested in two passes. The picks were fermented separately and then blended back together. The early pick lends acidity to the wine and a strong ginger flavour. The later pick has more classic Gewurztraminer characters – lychee and lemongrass."

Lawson's Dry Hills (Marlborough) 2022 Gewurztraminer

Winery note

"Very pale straw in colour while the aromas offer the classic, lifted potpourri florals with lychee and roses with a pronounced thread of fresh lemon. The palate is soft, round and luscious but with wonderful weight and depth. Turkish delight flavours add to the wine's complexity and give way to ripe tropical fruits on the mid-palate while the finish has a pithy lemon character. Long, concentrated and highly memorable."

Rated Excellent & 93 Points - Cameron Douglas MS, May 2022 
"Fragrant, floral, spicy and seductive scents with aromas of baked apple and white peach, dried herb and white pepper corn. Silky texture touches the palate first followed by flavours of white fleshed orchard fruits, some tropical notes and dried herb qualities. A youthful freshness with a lively acid line and bright fleshy texture. Balanced and well made with a lengthy finish. Delicious and ready from day of purchase and through 2026+."

Hints of guava, sweet mandarin and blood orange on the palate. Finishes with good rounded texture and nice acid tension.

Iconic winery operated by Richard and Kirsten Searle. Fruit from Gisbornes Patutahi region. The first vineyard in New Zealand to plant Gewürztraminer, this is a clean fruit-driven style with richness and great aromatics.
Pale straw with hints of gold. An exotic rose petal, clove, lychee and star anise notes. Clean fruit-driven style, rich and full with lychee, Turkish delight, spice and ginger notes. A broad wine that persists well.

18.5/20 Joelle Thomson

A full bodied wine with a rich, oily texture that coats the palate with the variety’s distinct and heady flavours. The slight residual sugar adds to the wine’s weight and textural qualities.
The wine has an intensely perfumed nose, bursting with Turkish delight, cinnamon and nutmeg spice and rose petal aromas.
