Johannes Selbach is beyond a doubt one of the great producers in the wine world. But, being based in Germany, their wines are available at totally reasonable prices. Usually we can stock many of them year-round.

Selbach is renowned for his ability to take a snapshot of a vineyard at one place in time with every bottling he makes. His favorite sites are picked all at once, with grapes at every level of ripeness, fermented together and labelled with a site name like Rotlay or Antrecht, rather than a Prädikat level.

The Selbach family has been making wine in the Mosel for 400 hundred years, making them one of the oldest wine making houses in the region. But the wines are not old-fashioned; in fact, they exemplify everything we love about modern day Mosel wines: racy minerality, finesse and beautifully balanced acidity.

Professional Reviews

Antonio Galloni

AG 93
"The 2022 Riesling Zeltinger Schlossberg GG is from the Braun parcel above a retaining wall on a southwest-facing part of the Schlossberg with good water availability. The nose slowly reveals lemon, a glint of passion fruit and a touch of hazelnut. The palate is smooth and rounded but guided by a pure and vivid line of ripest Amalfi lemon radiating throughout the wine, accentuating purity, texture and length. There is substance and body, but it is made with a light touch."

Robert Parker

RP 96
"The 2022 Zeltinger Schlossberg Riesling GG is beautifully clear, refined and flinty on the intense nose that is coolish and warm at the same time in terms of coolish slate and ripe Riesling aromas. Mouth-filling, round and generous on the palate yet also savory and saline, this is a dense and intense, very mineral, complex and firmly structured Riesling of exceptional class and complexity. This is another great 2022 dry Riesling from Selbach that is one of the rare Must Buys of the vintage. 12.5% stated alcohol. Natural cork." -Stephan Reinhardt

Wine Spectator

WS 92
"Offers precision and depth, with zesty mineral and spice notes infusing a base of dried apricot, kumquat and citrus peel. A chamomile detail and floral lift add range midpalate, while the long, dry, mineral-rich finish stretches way out."
