The 2010 Gewurztraminer Vision was sourced from the El Marco Estate. It was fermented and aged for 5 months in stainless steel. Notions of lychee, pit fruits, and baking spices set the stage for a wine with excellent varietal character but which finishes with a touch of bitterness. Drink this very good value over the next 2-3 years. Cono Sur Vineyards and Winery has established a reputation for combining value and quality and has been a leader in the development of Pinot Noir in Chile.

A highly aromatic wine. Lychee is the prime scent along with white flowers, and the palate is oily but right, with lychee, ginger, spice and orange flavors. Plump but short on the finish, but clean as a whole. Very nice for Chilean Gewurz.——W.E.(2/1/2011)—— 87

Frosted aromas of orange creamsicle, lychee and melon give this an elevated, unique sort of bouquet. Among Chilean Gewurztraminers, this is one of the more expressive ones you’ll find. Pineapple, mango and other tropical flavors are pleasant, while the feel is forward and fun. Drink this summer with fish and salads.——M.S.(7/1/2009)—— 86
