Leveret Estate Hawke’s Bay Gewürztraminer 2016

$21.99$125.35 inc GST

The Leveret brand is a descendant of the award-winning Coniglio range. The word “leveret” means young hare, three of which can be found dancing on the bottle’s label. The ears of the hares connect creating a triangular symbol that was used by the tin merchants of Devon, traders on the Silk Road.

With it’s own sense of history, and coming from an up-standing family, we’re excited to present a premium and reserve option for the Leveret brand.

Aromas of rosewater and cinnamon spice. The palate has medium sweetness and the finish is lightly spiced with nutmeg and cinnamon.

    Vineyards and Winemaking

    The fruit for this wine was all grown at our Campbell's Brook vineyard in Hawke's Bay. The wine was made in our Riverview winery where the grapes were destemmed and lightly crushed to the press where a few hours of skin contact time was allowed. The juice was then pressed to a stainless steel fermenter and inoculated with VL1 yeast. Cooling to 11°C gave a long, slow ferment to preserve the aromatic characters.

    The wine was stabilised and transferred to our Katikati winery for light fining and filtration with bottling on 7th September 2016.
