Note di degustazione
This “three-star” bottling wears its botrytis influence rather obviously, beginning with the radish- and lemon-peel-like prickle, ominous smokiness and overlay of mushroom exhibited on the nose alongside intimations of honey, white raisin, brown spices and quince jelly. The rich and custardy yet paradoxically airy and brightly juicy palate evokes lemon meringue slathered with quince jelly and gooseberry jam. This embryonic elixir finishes with brash intensity and cheek-tugging grip.

The three-starred 2017 Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Riesling Auslese *** is concentrated, clear and spicy on the flinty nose. Vinified in a 500-liter stainless steel tank, this lush and mouth-filling but filigreed and highly delicate Auslese is based on perfect botrytis grapes. This is a gorgeously salty Auslese with fine tannins and good grip on the citrusy, grapefruity finish. Highly stimulating but far too young. Tasted in March 2019.
If you have never had a Mosel Auslese before, this would be exactly the right place to start. All the citrus fruits pours from the glass. Concentrated but also very elegant with a finish so fresh that it takes your breath away. Drink or hold.
