Cassegrain Edition Noir Gewurztraminer 2013
A briny, austere and spicy traminer, packed with fruit and exhibiting a fine balance between fruit, acidity and minerality. Its pungent, musky bouquet of lychees, rose oil and spice borders on the exaggerated, while its luscious, soft and oily palate frames its pleasing length of fruit with savoury and mineral notes, finishing with distinctive punctuation and a faint sweetness.

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.
