WTN: I’ll be Selbach for more

[David M. Bueker]

• 2001 Selbach-Oster Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Spätlese - Germany, Mosel Saar Ruwer (2/10/2022)
  Served side by side with the 2001 Selbach-Oster Zeltinger Schlossberg Spätlese, this was the richer, creamier of the two, but still had excellent spine. The core was classic Wehlener Sonnenuhr lemon cream, and age brought a bit of brûlée to the party. Still so much material here, but I very much like where it is now.

  Served side by side with the 2001 Selbach-Oster Wehlener Sonnenuhr Spätlese, this was the rapier cut to the Wehlener’s cool caress. Not much further evolved from when I last had it 18 months ago, it continued to glide along its knife edge of acidity, buffered by Feinherb-plus sweetness that disappeared in the finish. It’s a classic Mosel Spätlese that will hold on for as long as anyone is willing to wait.
