Ellero

Ellero 2011 Gewurztraminer Central Otago 14.3%
N: Soft and  gentle with a slow unfolding of the bouquet - this wine needs a few minutes in glass to awaken. A soft spicy edge with white pepper, nougat, apple, peach and white flower. A point of difference with this wine's aroma is the zero candy suggestion which can be a little overwhelming in some examples - not this one. 
4.5 Stars

P: Dry with plenty of spice impact balanced by keen fruit flavors - reflective of the bouquet. Medium to medium+ acid, length and finish. I like this wine as much as the previous release (if not more). Don't stop making this wine and style please - it's great!
4.5 Stars
