Description

The unirrigated Redwood Valley vineyard is situated on a gently sloping, north-facing clay site; the vines range in age from 10 to 30 years. Vertical shoot positioning helps to expose the berries to sunlight, thus getting maximum intensity and optimal ripeness. The Brightwater vines are grown in an extremely stony area of the vineyard where water and nutrient levels are low. This helps to restrict the plants vigour and to crop at low levels. The Brightwater Vineyard is situated 15km from the coast and is sheltered from the south by the Richmond ranges. The ‘soil’ is a combination of rocks and boulders which is very hard on the farm equipment but vital for holding the warmth of Nelson’s sun and for ripening our Gewürztraminer grapes.

TASTING NOTES
The 2019 Seifried Nelson Gewürztraminer is fragrant with enticing exotic aromas on the nose. The palate is packed with flavours of lychee, toffee apple and ginger. The wine is luscious and concentrated leaving lasting flavours.
