The Allan Scott ‘Generations’ range was introduced last year in recognition of Allan and Catherine Scott’s children, Victoria, Josh and Sara’s full involvement of the family winegrowing and making business. In an industry where succession is a serious issue, the Allan Scott Family Winemakers business is in the good hands of the next generation. The inaugural release featured Sauvignon Blanc, Dry Riesling, Riesling, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, and were made from low-cropped vines in limited quantities. The wines proved very popular and old out very quickly.
For this year, there is the addition of a 2016 Gewurztraminer to the ‘Generations’ range. As with the other wines in the range, it is sourced from a single vineyard, and considerable effort has gone into ensuring ripeness and flavour with the vines carrying one bunch per shoot, and work with opening the canopies. Here, I review the 2016 Gewurztraminer. www.allanscott.com
