The Noble Gewürztraminer is produced from fully ripened gewürztraminer grapes grown
on Archer’s Vineyard. The Archer’s gewürztraminer vineyard, planted in 2002, has been named as a tribute to Alan and Mary Archer of Lenswood and is located high in the central cool-climate Adelaide Hills. The property had previously belonged to Alan and Mary Archer who ran The Chesser Cellar, a dining institution in Adelaide for many years. Alan had previously sold my father Cyril’s wine in Adelaide and Mary grew her produce for the restaurant in her garden on the farm at Lenswood. The ancient well-drained sandy loam soils derived from a sedimentary shale bedrock ensure naturally low-yielding vines and concentrated fruit flavours. The handpicked late harvested fruit had natural botrytis, result- ing in greater complexity and lusciousness. The cool-climate Adelaide Hills provides purity of fruit, beautiful acidity, length of flavour and excellent ageing potential. Serve cold with fresh fruit desserts and cheeses.
