Tasting Notes

96-97
Robert Parker Wine Advocate Stephan Reinhardt - 28 Apr 17
The 2015 Riesling Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Spätlese (Golden Capsule) displays the herbal bouquet of the Kabinett but is certainly more deep, concentrated and complex. The wine has great finesse on the palate, and its crystalline acidity and lingering salinity carry the perfectly ripe and lush fruit to a long, vibrating and mouth-watering finish. This Spätlese is highly finessed and complex and—along with the 2015 Scharzhofberger—probably the finest Spätlese I have tasted from the vintage.

Germany

Germany is renowned for its diverse, high-quality wines, primarily white varieties like Riesling. Thriving in cool climates and regions like Mosel, Rheingau, and Pfalz, German Rieslings range from dry to sweet, showcasing vibrant acidity and minerality. Top producers include Weingut Egon Müller and Joh. Jos. Prüm in Mosel, Weingut Robert Weil in Rheingau, and Dr. Loosen. Weingut Keller in Rheinhessen is noted for both Riesling and Spätburgunder (Pinot Noir). These producers highlight the excellence and tradition of German winemaking.
