AUSTRALIA WIDE SHIPPING INCLUDED

Skillogalee crafts their Gewurztraminer in the classic style – textural, aromatic and spicy with a crisp finish.

The Gewurztraminer vines at Skillogalee are grown using minimal intervention and sustainable farming practices to minimise the impact on our environment. The wine is made on-site at the Skillogalee winery.

With cool and dry weather, the 2021 vintage in the Clare Valley produced lovely fruit with excellent varietal character and natural acidity. The cool growing season was preceded by late-winter and early-spring rains which allowed for good spring growth on the vines. This was followed by below average rainfall and dry conditions for the remainder of the season, resulting in a vintage that produced beautiful and classic Clare wines.

The wine is pale straw hue with green tinges. Exotic aromatics of orange blossom and zest with ginger and white pepper spice follow through onto the palate which is slippery and textured all balanced by refreshing, juicy acidity and a lingering, dry finish.

A fantastic food matching wine, spanning most genres, top of the list should be lightly-spiced, contemporary Asian food, fresh summertime salads and flavoursome white meat dishes
