Description

In 1974, Lois and the late Rolfe Mills moved back to the family farm in Wanaka. Acting largely on a hunch born in the schist slopes of the Douro Valley many years earlier, they planted a few short rows of experimental vines on a small steep bank above their house. Despite the mostly negative opinions of the viticultural experts of the time, the climate data that Rolfe collected was encouragement enough for them to plant their first commercial vineyard block in 1982. The growing belief they had in the site’s potential to produce fine wine was soon to be realised.

Effusive floral, lychee and spice aromas emerge from the 2019 Gewurztraminer. Yet for all the showy scents, the wine isn't that broad, showing admirable balance and focus to its medium-bodied palate. If there's a touch of sugar here, it's barely noticeable, finishing clean and crisp.Wine Advocate 91 (2019)
