Marada Gewurztraminer 2018

Gewurz is one of Sean's absolute favs. It's a variety of great versatility, refined flavour and fun. This one is wearing an orange coat from skin contact, 3 weeks of maceration then ageing for 8 months in oak on lees. A complex character who can be a love him or hate him kinda guy. We frickin' love him.

Building on decades of family winemaking, Petr Marada established himself in 2006 on fully organic vineyards and brought a natural philosophy to the winemaking. A less-is-more strategy, gentle and well timed interventions give really distinct, vintage expression and place-made wines. Another Czech winery that is blowing up and finding themselves deservedly in the finest natural wine shops, bars and restaurants around the globe. And in our little shop.
