Sheldrake Point 2007 Ice Wine Riesling (Finger Lakes)
- $65
The multi-layered nose is immediately compelling with appealing notes of peaches and berries. Archetypal Riesling notes of apricots and wet stones shine through on the extremely concentrated palate. Crisp acidity adds a lift to the long, lingering finish.

Sheldrake Point 2008 Late Harvest Riesling (Finger Lakes)
- $25
Golden honey, tangerines and orange blossoms perfume this silky smooth late harvest Riesling. Lush stone fruit and honey flavors melt onto the palate, but are anchored by an elegant black tea note and a bright tangerine acidity that make this sweet ambrosia a delightfully long sip.

Sheldrake Point 2003 Reserve Riesling (Finger Lakes)
- $21
Gold in color, this wine blossoms with aromas of petrol, lychee, spice and vanilla, followed by flavors of the same. Sheldrake Point, on the west side of Cayuga Lake, has been making a name for itself in New York Riesling, showing with this mostly-dry wine how a couple of years can add complexity and a rich mouthfeel.

Sheldrake Point 2005 Dry Riesling (Finger Lakes)
- $15
Aromas of nail polish blow off to reveal moderate white fruit, but this wine shines in the mouth with mineral, spice, yellow fruits and citrus. Dry to the point of being austere, nevertheless a touch of sweetness adds roundness. Citrus and spice on the finish. A good value in New York Riesling.

Sheldrake Point 2010 Riesling (Finger Lakes)
- $15
The initially ebullient florals and sweet apricot preserves in Sheldrake Point’s standard Riesling gain elegance and subtlety from a bracing shower of acidity. Fresh stone-fruit flavors penetrate deeply on the off-dry palate before trailing off with a whisper of lime oil.

Sheldrake Point 2007 Reserve Riesling (Finger Lakes)
- $25
Swirls of smoke and freshly pressed apples entice on the nose of this lean, dry Riesling. On the palate, hints of chalk and wet stone meld with a shower of fresh white grapefruit flavors, finishing long with a bold smoke and honey note.

Sheldrake Point 2010 Dry Riesling (Finger Lakes)
- $15
Scents of tea leaves and honeysuckle add a layer of dimension to ripe, rich yellow peach and apricot notes in this densely concentrated Riesling from Sheldrake Point. Surprisingly dry on the palate despite so much sweet fruit flavor, the palate is framed with a shower of lime juice and pith that carries through to a long, minerally finish.

Sheldrake Point 2009 Dry Riesling (Finger Lakes)
- $15
Dainty aromas of fresh apple and freesia are juxtaposed gorgeously against a striking tinge of petrol. While initially soft and honeyed, Sheldrake’s Dry Riesling is remarkably lean with a steely minerality and focused, lime-inflected acidity.
