Crafted from Misha’s Vineyard on the stunning slopes of Bendigo in Central Otago, this 2023 vintage highlights the cool-climate finesse of the region. The fruit was hand-picked and gently pressed, with fermentation conducted in stainless steel to preserve aromatic purity. Extended lees contact lends mouthfeel and texture without overshadowing the fruit.
Bouquet Aromatic and alluring, the nose showcases rose petal, orange blossom, fresh ginger and exotic spices. Hints of honeysuckle and ripe pear unfurl with time in glass.
Palate Elegant and finely balanced, with a silky texture and a thread of natural acidity that keeps the wine fresh and vibrant. Flavours of lychee, mandarin and cardamom glide across the palate, finishing long and dry with a whisper of spice.
Food Pairing Perfect with mildly spiced Asian cuisine such as Vietnamese lemongrass chicken or Peking duck pancakes. Also delicious with aromatic cheeses like Munster or soft blue.
Cellaring Enjoy young for its lifted floral charm, or cellar for up to 5 years as complexity builds and spice tones deepen.
Interesting Fact The name “The Gallery” reflects Misha’s background in the performing arts and her vision for wines that express both drama and finesse—qualities beautifully captured in this Gewürztraminer.
