Made from the Scheurebe variety that Phelps has worked with for many years, this is an enormously sweet dessert wine. It tastes like apricot liqueur, tangerine jam and honeyed iced tea, with all kinds of spicy, buttery notes. Could be brisker in acidity, but it certainly flatters the sweet tooth. ——S.H.(9/1/2011)—— 90

Made from the exotic Scheurebe grape, this is a very sweet wine, brimming with pineapple jam, ripe pear and honeysuckle flavors, with an oily, glyceriney fatness. It’s balanced with crisp acidity, so the finish is dry and clean. Just delicious now with fruity desserts, vanilla cake or a buttery lemon souffle.——S.H.(2/1/2011)—— 95
