Cassegrain Edition Noir Gewurztraminer 2015
A complex, mineral and genuinely varietal traminer whose spicy, faintly meaty aromas of lychees and rose oil have a bright translucent quality. ItÕs elegant and brightly lit, tightly honed but soft and quite restrained, delivering a good but not great length of fruit that culminates in a savoury, refreshing and mineral finish.

Cassegrain
Cassegrain has steadily expanded from its original base around Port Macquarie to become an active participant in a number of cooler New South Wales regions, from which it regularly changes the fruit sources of some of its wines, including those featured here. There's a complex and sophisticated, savoury stamp about these wines that stands them apart from the Australian mainstream. Cassegrain's reds tend to lack genuine conviction and ripeness.
