2003 Delatite Dead Mans Hill Gewurztraminer

An aromatic Gewurztraminer with a very distinctive aroma and flavour of musk. Now if you’re not familiar with the smell of musk may we suggest that you purchase a pack of Musk flavoured Life Savers (an Australian confectionary) and you’ll soon see what we mean. Bright straw colour. Lifted nose of rose petal, musk, lychee and spice showing a strong varietal character. The palate is very spicy and quite powerful in its flavour intensity. Again it is the musk characteristic that is dominant, followed by lychee. Crisp acid finish followed by a very long musk spice aftertaste.
