Shot in the Dark Traminer Riesling 2013

AustraliaShot in the Dark is a joint project between well-known Aussie winemaker John Quarisa, and Icon Fine Wine & Spirits. The aim was to make approachable, affordable wines, and this one certainly qualifies. An aromatic and off dry blend of traminer (a mutant family member to gewürztraminer) and riesling, this lower alcohol (11.5 percent) is showy sweet peach, lime pulp and pear, with a floral/herb character, spiced lychee, anise and sweet lime on the finish.Tasted: 09 April 2015Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
