Villa Maria Gewurztraminer Private Bin 2008

15.5 / 20
Producer: Villa Maria
Region: East Coast
Country: New Zealand











This wine's bouquet is a dead giveaway for the grape variety it uses: Lychees all the way. Sweet, intense and persistent lychee aromas.

The taste follows the bouquet. An intense, fruit driven wine. The tropical fruit can be felt all the way during the taste but, in my opinion, its sweetness is a bit too much in the finale.

But it is a good example of a new world Gewurztraminer, very aromatic and fruit-forward.
