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 | |||
"The 2020 Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Spätlese feinherb "Ur-alte Reben" is clear and finely flinty on the bright yet intense and concentrated yet pure and iodine nose that offers mango and other tropical fruit aromas. Lush and elegant on the palate, this is a very intense but pure, fine and grippy, iodine but also lush and delicate Spätlese from vines planted in 1900. The finish is intense, fleshy and seriously structured. 12% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine in July 2022." —Wine Advocate |
