Düfte Punkt is an aromatic paradigm-shift. A seamless single-vineyard blend of precise Riesling, spicy Gewürztraminer, and textural Weißer Herold. Striking turkish delight aromas introduce a complex palate showing lychees, mandarins, minerality & lingering powder-puff florals.
One Vineyard. Three Germanic Luminaries. One Aromatic Explosion.
Düfte Punkt is an aromatic paradigm-shift. A seamless single-vineyard blend of spicy Gewürztraminer, precise Riesling and textural Kerner (aka Weißer Herold). Striking lychee and turkish delight aromas introduce a complex palate showing lychees, mandarins, minerality and a lingering powder-puff of florals.
The Fechner brothers' applauded vineyard in the Eden Valley is unique for both its spectacular aromatics and its unique varietal mix. This field blend is a cofermentation consisting of 40% Riesling, 40% Gewürztraminer and 20% Kerner (aka Weißer Herold from one of only two Australian plantings of this Riesling-Trollinger crossbreed).
91 Points James Halliday Wine Companion
A triple treat with spice, lychees and Turkish Delight aromas of the gewurztraminer to the fore, riesling's racy acidity driving this and the weisser herold aka kerner adding preserved lemons, body and grip.

Adelaide Review Hot 100 Awards
The 2016 vintage marked three years in a row in the HOT100 Wines SA competition
Highly rated Huon Hooke, The real Review
Light, medium yellow colour, with a pronounced gewürzy fragrance which summons frangipani and other tropical flowers. Hints of honey and apricot. The palate is soft and round, not a classic riesling 'shape'. An obvious and well-managed blend of aromatic varieties
Highly Rated Decanter World Wine Awards
Pretty Germanic nose - baked apples, pears and some floral notes.
