What to Expect

Few white wines have achieved the fame that Riesling has in Germany. Its ability to produce a wide range of styles, from bone dry to lusciously sweet, in an even wider range of climates has made it the grape of Germany. Riesling in Germany can range from the steely, piercing wines of the Saar to the round, opulent peachy wines one typically finds in the Nahe and the Pfaltz. Every region is capable of producing both dry and sweet versions though there is a movement towards drier wines that has taken hold throughout many regions.

Winemakers Notes

The Selbach-Oster Spatlese is creamy-textured and light to medium-bodied. Feminine and graceful it seduces the taster with its lush pear and apple-flavored character. Anticipated maturity now-2014.

Reviews

This was crisp, clean and racy. Nice apple and slate in an uncomplicated way. Classic Middle Mosel Kabinett. Probably great by the glass in a restaurant (http://rockssandfruit.blogspot.com/2008/08/riesling-fest-at-grand-sichuan-pt-78967.html ).

On the dry side, medium body with aromas of peach, pineapple, spice and minerals. Elegant and lightweight, yet very seductive and balanced with intense flavors that build through a long finish.

Sweet florality, talcum, mint, grapefruit, fresh apple, and a pungent, spicy, honeyed burst of botrytis. This is quite voluminous, yet remains firm and bright. Spearmint, brown spices, wet stone, char, and grapefruit zest all join apple and honey in a rich yet irresistibly refreshing finish.

When one can drink such a delightfully lively and fruity white for this price, it's a wonder that anyone pays more for so many mediocre Chardonnays. Those in the know, however, will reap the benefits both at the table and the cash register.
