Reviews of this wine:
2007 Gewurztraminer
submitted by: Tony Aspler

Colour: medium straw
Nose: light rose petal and lychee aromas
Taste: elegant, lacy, aromatic; off-dry and perfumed (rose water) with sweet grapefruit notes. Well made. Good value
Drinkability: now

http://www.raymondchanwinereviews.co.nz/blog/nelson-internat...

The palate has lively, lacy acidity that is slippery in mouthfeel and the wine has a very long, sustained finish. This will develop greater interest over the next 4-5 years easily. 18.5+/20

A fine core shows with linearity, and there is poise between slightly drying phenolics and lacy acidity. The wine features a soft-textured, nuanced, dry finish with excellent length. 18.5+/20

(aromatic) lacework


Explanation:
Sugestão...

Compact and delicate with an aromatic lacework of raspberry, almonds and forest berry, this is a feminine rosé blend of Sangiovese and Canaiolo that would pair beautifully with light finger foods or salads. It has good freshness and a crisp close.

complexity of aromas


Explanation:
"rendilhado" does mean 'lacy' of course, but in the larger context of wine descriptors, I would say something like

Example sentence(s):
  • "a startling complexity of aromas..."
  • Complex - This describes a wine which has a myriad of aromas and flavors. The opposite of a "simple" wine, a complex wine has various aromas and flavors that compliment each other.
