A rich, fruit-driven wine crafted by the first vineyard in New Zealand to plant the variety. It pours a pale straw with hints of gold, releasing exotic aromas of rose petal, clove, lychee, and star anise. The palate is full and clean, bursting with vibrant flavours of lychee, Turkish delight, spice, and ginger that make it an exceptional match for aromatic Asian cuisine, bold blue cheese, or fresh fruit desserts.

Alluvial gold miners working in Central Otago named the large quartz boulders that had been stained yellow by leached minerals 'Chinaman'.

This Gewürztraminer shows perfumed aromas of lychee and yellow pear combining with fresh clover honey, rose petal, and ginger spice. The palate reveals similar flavours, finishing with a gentle soft texture and an off-dry finish. This wine complements many food styles including white meats and salads, cheese boards. It pairs particularly well with Asian and Indian inspired cuisine.
