Notes | |||
"Peach, apricot, apple, as well as citrus fruit and herbs are typical features of the aroma of our young and dry wines. Our delicately and subtly sweet wines show nuances of quince and tropical fruit, and the ripest of them will display honey and raisin flavors, often backed by a touch of salty minerality, and always balanced by crunchy acidity. These wines are long lived and develop additional complexity through secondary and tertiary aromas that enrich the taste spectrum." —winemaker |
Critical Acclaim | |||
"Bottled in early September, the 2019 Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Riesling Spätlese feinherb "Ur-alte Reben" is very fine and subtle on the deep, intense and aromatic but pure, fresh and flinty-elegant nose with a touch of oak. Silky, refined and fresh on the palate, this is a very complex and crystalline Riesling with enormous length and complexity. A gorgeous wine that needs years to show its talents. Tasted at the domain in September 2020." —Wine Advocate |
