Giesen ‘The Brothers’ Marlborough Gewurztraminer 2014 $29.80 ★★★★Giesen The Brothers Gewürztraminer (1)

An explosion of lychee and ginger, peach and plush, musky sweetness is going to hit you in this ripe, rumpty gewürztraminer that’ll have you asking for another glass pronto.  If the tropical, spicy, juicy flavours don’t wow you, then the pure, refreshing, finish definitely will.  While it’s a darn tasty wine to drink now, I’m also thinking a couple of extra years in the cellar (if you’re disciplined enough) could add some extra layers of honeysuckle and spice.  Great with garlic and chilli prawns.  www.giesen.co.nz
