Aromas of tropical fruits, peach, marmalade and white flowers. The palate is dry and rich, but refined. You’ll find stone fruit flavours on the palate, along with black tea, cardamom, blood orange and a good dash of salinity. The acids are mild, but the wine isn’t flabby, and there is a touch of nuttiness. Despite the skin contact, the tannins are minimal and offer a good counterpoint to the viscosity of the Traminer element. Chill lightly and serve with summer salads, seared scallops or grilled sausages and sauerkraut.
