From - Victoria, Australia
Grape - Gewurztraminer, Riesling, Pinot Gris
Price - (latest vintage not currently available)
Alcohol - 12.5% ABV
From - Naked Wines

Appearance - Clear; medium- intensity; lemon-gold

Nose - Clean; medium intensity; developing; exotic fruit and floral

Palate - Dry; medium + acidity; medium alcohol; medium body; medium intensity; medium+ length; pears and apples, papaya, a touch of savoury spice.

This was a gift from a very kind lady.  It is very fruity and tasty, and would make a great aperitif and a useful accompaniment to a creamy curry (such as Thai).  Very nice indeed.  The same blend as Hunky Dory The Tangle reviewed previously, which possibly just edges it between the two but they are both good.

Here are some Gewurztraminer grapes on the vine
