Description
Millton Libiamo Gewurztraminer 2020
Millton Libiamo Gewurztraminer has a lifted nose of fruits and pink roses with hints of cardamom, fennel seed and turmeric spice. Cloudy appearance from natural sediments. The soft and dry palate is complex, rich with sweet sensations. It isn’t quaint, nor is it fruity. The taste is long and intense.
Once opened, this wine will last and even improve for a number of days afterwards. So take your time, savour and drink in moderation, with love and gratitude.
100% Gewurztraminer. The fruit comes from the Millton Vineyard on the East Coast of the North Island of New Zealand in the wine appellation of Gisborne. Libiamo! Let’s drink!
Handpicking of the fruit, fermented on skins for 119 days, then pressing to old barrels. Bottled later without any fining or filtration.
