Pale, touch of straw. Fine, clean traminer aromas. No hint of flabby oiliness. Some bottle devt richness but very restrained. Ditto palate. Does not have the acid framing of Alsatian versions but a very fine effort. Medium length and weight. Drink by 2025.

This wine surprised me. It has the complexity that this variety can express, without the heaviness or oiliness that it so often displays in Australia. Although it lacks the acid cut and the flavour intensity of Alsace, it is very much in that mould. Beautifully clean and very well made, showing good though not great length and acceptable acid. Should age nicely.
