Selbach-Oster Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Ur Alte Reben Riesling Spatlese Feinherb MCM 2020

$4999

From the Mosel's most prized vineyard site, this old-vines Riesling celebrates the Selbach family's dedication to their original rootstocks. The Zeltinger Sonnenuhr's legendary south-facing slopes yield Spätlese richness balanced by the Feinherb style—off-dry elegance rather than overt sweetness. Smoke and spice mingle with orchard fruit and creamy minerality. A masterclass in how cool-climate Riesling can be profound, nuanced, and utterly mesmerizing.

More about Selbach-Oster

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.
