2022 Johanneshof Marlborough Gewurztraminer

94 Points Bob Campbell MW
In stock
Always scooping awards, this is an icon kiwi Gewurztraminer from the experts at Johanneshof. With a balanced (though rich) sweetness and an satisfyingly unctuous mouthfeel, this is a Gewurz-lover's delight and a classic match with those spicy foods and salty-savoury cheeses. Otherwise, it's such a treat you could just drink it all by itself!
$35.99 in mixed 6+ or $39.99 per bottle

Its Origins

Johanneshof Cellars is a boutique, artisan winery producing wines from hand harvested grapes only sourced from their vineyards and growers in Marlborough. It is jointly owned and operated by Edel Everling, a fifth generation winemaker from Germany and Warwick Foley from Marlborough. Both winemakers trained in the world-famous wine area of Rheingau, Germany, where Edel studied for her degree in viticulture and oenology at Geisenheim University while Warwick was a guest student there. They continued to work for renowned wineries in Germany and New Zealand before setting up Johanneshof Cellars in 1991.

What The Critics Say

94/100 Bob Campbell MW

"A highly aromatic varietal aroma greets the nose; spices and lychees. It’s delicate, dry and not the heavy nor over-sweetened nor tannic style. Slightly lean profile: an alternative style which is just a trifle one-dimensional. Time may help that. 11 NOV 2022." Drink 2022 - 2030
