Ochota Barrels Weird Berries in the Woods Adelaide Hillls Gewürztraminer
Gewurztraminer often lacks verve and structure, but this Adelaide Hills vineyard has delivered a lively and zesty style of lemon zest crunch. All the theatrics of this precocious variety are on display in guava exotics, subtle rosewater perfume and finely textural mouth feel, drawing together in a honed and focused finish of lingering persistence. There’s just the right level of generosity to marry perfectly with Japanese and Asian fusion cuisine. A production of just 427 bottles sold out overnight, but if you’re quick you’ll find it for $35 at Edinburgh Cellars.
