New York Cork Report
-
By Lenn Thompson
(Sheldrake Point Vineyards Gewurztraminer Finger Lakes) Delivers balance and doesn't overdo it on the rose petal character. Candied lemon peel bursts from the glass with floral aromas that aren't at all rose-like or perfumy, classic lychee notes and a little sprinkling of brown spice. Medium bodied and showing good balance between residual sugar and acidity, this gewurz tastes dry despite sweet lemon-citrus flavors with some ripe peach in the mix. The acidity isn't electric, but helps the wine finish crisply with lingering citrus blossom and Lemon Head candy flavors.

Voluptuous nose with hints of rose petal, orange blossom and nasturtium. Palate is vibrant and rich with flavors orange, stone fruit and quince. Intensely rich and flavorful end elegant.

Good on the color. The nose shows aromas of tropical fruit, rose petal, clove, and herbs. This is light bodied on the palate with good concentration and a fair amount of class. The medium plus length finish features a strong mineral element.
