2006 Zeltinger Schlossberg, Kabinett, Weingut Selbach-Oster, Mosel

Top-notch Riesling from a serious producer. 2006 Riesling Kabinett Zeltinger Schlossberg is aromatic, with searing minerality and hints of cinnamon and rose-petals. On the palate, it offers intense, multi-layered citrus fruit and flint flavours, that coat the mouth. Selbach's wines are typically crafted for the long-term and show substantial improvement after a few years of bottle maturation.

Perfumed, aromatic nose; ebullent citrus, mineral-tinged with good fruit; texured layers lead to a long finish.
