95 Points James Suckling
Wonderful nose of exotic fruit (more mangosteen than lychee) and tropical flowers, none of the specific notes dominating, rather the opposite. So succulent and elegant, the texture on the rather sleek palate really silky. The extravagance of this grape only showing a little at the flamboyant finish, where a salty touch lifts the ample body effortlessly. From biodynamically grown grapes. Drink or hold.

The 2020 Gewurztraminer Cuvée Laurence is clear, bright and exotic on the nose that offers lemon chutney and spicy notes intermingled with rose petal aromas. On the palate, this is a rich and intense but fresh and tightly structured Gewurz with good tension and a saline, finely piquant and stimulating finish. 14% stated alcohol. Natural cork. (SR) 92+
Winemaker Notes
The aromas are evocative with notes of rose petals and exotic fruit. Slightly off-dry on the palate, this vintage unveils a bouquet of ripe cantaloupe, guava and nectarine aromas which are balanced with delicate spices such as ginger and cardamom. The finish is long and elegant.This Gewurztraminer is versatile and can be paired with smoked salmon as well as ginger braised pork, South East Asian cuisine such as red coconut curry, Indian or Moroccan-style dishes. Also great on its own, as an aperitif or with foie gras and rich, mature cheeses.
