Big rich fruity aromas with lots of Gewürztraminer funk. Dry on the palate with lots of slate and chalk. Apricot and peach gentile fruitiness are balanced by ripe acidity. Long, dry, mineral rich finish.

Apple, lychee, lime, tropical fruit, slate and hints of honey. Good acidity and balance.

Very floral for this winery. Full of flowers and odd on the nose. Rich and buttery bur not too sweet.

This is an excellent wine, sweet and floral with a heavy feel like a dessert wine. Nice apple hints with honeysuckle, accenting this region's finest.

Classic floral nose with a hint of almonds and soap. Lychee, apple and lemon zest on the pallet. Spicy/white pepper finish. More than reasonable expression of the varietal.

Another nice vintage from Sheldrake Point. Very floral. Tastes like you are chewing on a honeysuckle.
