Variety
Since our Trophy at the NSW Small Winemaker's show in 2015, I've been looking for a parcel of Traminer fruit I liked as much. I got my hands on a couple of tons of beautiful grapes from our neighbours who dodged the frost. The grape's spiritual home is the Alsace region, and I love the spice and aromatics of these wines. They pack a real punch in terms of flavour, have a beautiful texture, and are just something a bit different. The sweetness of this wine was the subject of heated debate in the team - bone-dry beat slightly off-dry. This time!
