Dependent on vigour, the vines were cane pruned to either one or two canes and trained to vertical shoot position. The cool spring of 2020 significantly reduced the crop, dropping yields down to 2.5 tonnes per hectare. Both the number and size of the berries were impacted, meaning that there was good skin to juice ratio, giving the final wine a more intense flavour. Due to the low yields, the Gewurztraminer grapes were picked all in one go in March 2021.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColour:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ePale gold with hints of green. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAroma:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eClassic perfume of rosewater and Turkish delight, with a touch of jasmine and orange zest. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eHints of guava, sweet mandarin and blood orange on the palate.
