Lychee, quince, ginger, honeysuckle and spice...and all things nice.
Main Divide Gewurztraminer
- A rich, mouth-filling, off-dry style white that's ideal with spicy cuisine - especially a Thai or Indian curry!
- 4 1/2 Stars (Michael Cooper, NZ Listener) - "Bargain-priced...It is mouthfilling, with strong, peachy, spicy, slightly gingery flavours, considerable complexity, a gentle splash of sweetness and moderate acidity. Already very open and expressive, it’s an ideal introduction to gewürztraminer’s delights."
- "A classic North Canterbury summer then enabled this smaller crop to mature beautifully" (Main Divide)
- Made by the super talented crew at Pegasus Bay
Michael Cooper 4.5 Stars
Main Divide Gewurztraminer is made by the Pegasus Bay crew – a primo Waipara producer with international recognition for their classy line up of wines.
Main Divide is the little brother to their Pegasus Bay label and just quietly we reckon it’s punching well above its weight for under twenty bucks. Main Divide is the name given to the mighty Southern Alp range, nicknamed the “backbone of the South Island” by some southerners. Backbone is exactly what this stunning white has got in abundance!
Scoring 4 1/2 Stars with Michael Cooper in the NZ Listener, Michael said “Bargain-priced, this invitingly perfumed wine was fermented and briefly aged in old oak casks. It is mouthfilling, with strong, peachy, spicy, slightly gingery flavours, considerable complexity, a gentle splash of sweetness and moderate acidity. Already very open and expressive, it’s an ideal introduction to gewürztraminer’s delights.”
Produced from some of their Waipara vineyards this is a mouth-filling, off-dry style white full of richness and sweetness. It’s ideal with spicy Asian cuisine, especially Thai or Indian curries.
