Delheim Gewürztraminer 2019

Vibrant aromas of litchi, white Turkish delight, white juice pear and rose petals on the nose. The palate is brought to life an abundance of fresh fruit flavours ranging from litchi to orange skins, with a touch of sweet honey comb underpinned by a zesty acidity that lingers in the mouth well after the first sip.
