There are very few making Gewurztraminer in Prince Edward County and even fewer willing to be so brazenly brash about their love for it. Glenn Symons, owner and winemaker, admits to having a g-spot (a soft spot for Gewurztraminer) which is why he's always gonna make one - even it he's gotta bring everything in from Niagara. This wine is floral, lychee and has an unctuous texture with hints of white pepper on the spicy finish that’s worth coming back to again and again. An Alsatian yeast is used in fermenting giving the wine a more Alsatian flavour and weight in the mouth. Look for more interesting G-wines from Lighthall in the future as they have plans to plant between 1-1.5 acres in the next few years. Price: $25.00 - Rating: ****
