2007 Selbach-Oster Zeltinger Schlossberg Riesling Spätlese - Germany, Mosel Saar Ruwer (2/22/2023)
From half bottle this is mature but in no danger of going off a cliff anytime soon. Distinct apricot, red apple and lemon cream notes ride along a rich wave that is characteristic Spätlese from this rich vintage. More honey on the finish accentuates sixteen years of age in a small bottle, but there’s nothing dried out or eviscerated. The acids peel through on the finish, ensuring it’s not cloying. Works well with spicy Dal.
