Description

The Gewurztraminer from the Kerri Greens collective is a restrained, elegant rendition of the variety.

Whilst all the intoxicating perfume of the variety is retained, this is tucked in tight. With no malo and just a tiny bit of residual sugar, the natural acidity keeps the wine fresh and light on its feet.

Where many examples of Gewurztraminer can be overblown, this is a nice easy drinking version. You'll make short work of a bottle of this, easily... but get it quick, only a very small batch made.

94 Points - "A very hard grape to get right is Gewürztraminer, though I'd say they've done a fine job of it here. Rosewater, lychee, ginger, musk, fresh apricot. It's fresh, a little nutty, almost a sake-like character, juicy and slightly flinty, perfume and again the lychee, but with some citrus acidity and flavour, and a long gently slippery umami-laced finish. Bang on." - Gary Walsh (The Wine Front)

95 Points - "Such a contrast to the tighter rendition in 2020, yet this is no less fabulous. It's just richer, fleshier and riper, but not heavy. Lychees and musk, poached quinces topped with cinnamon and drizzled with rosewater syrup. Tannins add a slippery, textural coating and grip across the full-bodied palate." - Jane Faulkner (Halliday Wine Companion)

Limited Availability, aka very small batch.

Left on skins for a few hours - get that flavour - before being pressed on an extended press cycle, hard pressings left separate. Juice slightly chilled and mixed before being carefully racked to barrel, minimal solids.

Wild yeast fermentation began some days later, there was no addition of sulphur before fermentation. Fermented in 2x old French puncheon and 1x barriques before being consolidated for maturation. Again, ferment was a long one with sulphur not added until early summer. Minimal batonage. After 11 months in barrel on ferment lees the wine was carefully racked for the first time before being left to settle in tank for a further 4 weeks.

Ordering

We want Different Drop customers to always be getting the best price. If you see a lower price elsewhere, just get in touch and we will sort it out for you. We handle all our price-matching on a case by case basis.

Some things to keep in mind: 

  • Retrospective price-matching is available for 30 days after you have purchased from us.
  • The price match cannot be used in conjunction with a coupon or one-off deal we are offering. The idea is for you to get the best price in the market so if that is already achieved through a coupon then we won't price match on top of that.
  • We don't price match clearance or fire sales.
  • We’ll match the listed price as long as it is a legitimate offer and the competing store is actually able to fulfil the order (they have stock or more stock is en route). Essentially we won't price match cheeky vendors listing wines they have no hope of actually getting for you...
  • It must be a publicly listed price. We won't match a price that has been achieved through a coupon/cash-back arrangement, or through a non-advertised offer over the phone or otherwise.  
  • It is limited to a reasonable retail quantity.

We'll treat each price match request on its merit and reserve the right to refuse where we deem fit. For example, particularly rare wines, from non-trust-worthy vendors, in circumstances we deem illegitimate or if we feel our policy is being unfairly taken advantage of.

At the end of the day, we'll look after you and use common sense to ensure you're getting the best price, please just don't take the p%$$!

No, feel free to mix it up! There is no minimum requirement. You can order wines in any quantity or combination, 1 or 50+ bottles.

We stock three different sized gift boxes (single, three bottle and six), all are available for purchase for a flat rate of $8. They look great and make an awesome impression.

To add a gift box to your order, simply add at checkout. The special requests box is your friend, please give us as many details of what you are looking for and we will try our best, or get in contact to discuss it with you. 

If you want to bulk order gifts or if you have any trouble please email hello@differentdrop.com or call and we can try and help.

 

If you can't add more wine to your cart it means we are low on stock of that wine. For example, if you are only able to 3 bottles and no more that means we only have 3 bottles left of that wine. If it's a must have, please contact us and we may be able to order more in for you.
