2020 Mader Gewurztraminer

The Mader domaine is a small volume, high quality wine producer based in the picture postcard village of Hunawihr. Their Gewurztraminer is sourced in the higher altitudes of Hunawihr (mostly Muhlforst which adjoins Grand cru Rosacker) from clay and limestone soils.
Brilliant pale straw to straw colour with greenish tinged edges and a watery hue. Exotic rosewater, lychee, Turkish delight, musk and ginger aromas flood the nostrils. Rich and possessing a thick, luscious textural feel the palate is engulfed with fleshy ripe pear, lychee and honeysuckle flavours which show fantastic concentration. Subtle infusions of musk and spice are also apparent. There’s some residual sweetness to the finish which along with low acidity contribute to a long moreish aftertaste.
Drink over the next 1-2 years.
Alc. 13.5%
