David Traeger, Maranoa Verdelho 2017
Veteran winemaker David Traeger began his life in the Australian wine industry in 1973. After working as a winemaker for both major and smaller wine companies, in 1986, he established his namesake wine business. After selling his eponymous “David Traeger” brand, he has re-established himself as a small independent winemaker. His aim is to produce limited volumes of elegant and distinctive wines, working with grapes from vineyards that attain the finest fruit character. Maranoa Verdelho 2017 is a lovely straw yellow colour and has a nose of guava, peach and pear with a touch of ripe melon, rose petal and lychee. 60% of the grapes were fermented in old oak which brings some more creamy flavours to the palate along with more fruitiness. An excellent fine acid structure and crispness and a lingering, stylish dry finish. A great pair with shellfish or poultry.
