Vintage: 2024
Source: Swinney Vineyard, Frankland River, Great Southern.
Fermentation: Overnight skin contact, wild ferment; 65% tank, 35% in seasoned French hogsheads. Three months on lees before bottling.
Tasting: Gorgeous florals; heady dried rose petal, musk and spice notes. Fleshy and textural, with a touch of mineral chalky texture to balance the fruit.
Reviews:
92 points. Erin Larkin, Wine Advocate
“The 2024 LV Gewürztraminer leads with rose water and crushed pistachios, fresh lychee. Boscobel rose and white-top strawberries. In the mouth, the wine is structural and intense. with brilliant balance and a blood-orange width on the palate that is most appreciated. Attractive and perfumed, it is very good. This has an authentic Gewürztraminer character that is driven by the savory phenolics on the palate, making this a very serious example.”
Alcohol 12.5%
