Zeltinger Himmelreich Riesling Kabinett

2007 Mosel Riesling

The Selbach Oster Zeltinger Himmelreich Riesling Kabinett from the 2007 vintage is a beautifully crafted white wine from the renowned Mosel region. This wine showcases a light body that is complemented by its bright acidity, creating a delightful balance on the palate. With a prominent fruit intensity, the nose is filled with enticing aromas of ripe stone fruits and citrus, both of which are signature characteristics of Riesling from this area. The mouthwatering nature of this wine is further enriched by its off-dry style, allowing for a refreshing finish that leaves one wanting another sip. A true gem from the Mosel, this wine reflects the region's unique terroir and dedication to quality winemaking.

Mosel

When it comes to quality Riesling, few places can rival Germany's Mosel region. This sheer-sided valley in Germany parallels the river of the same name and is home to some of the world's steepest vineyards. Riesling grown here is prized throughout the world for its slight sweetness, perfectly balanced by crisp acidity and aromatic floral perfume. Notes of green fruit and Meyer lemon add to the pleasant tang, with mineral touches of wet slate, beeswax and—in some aged examples—even petroleum too. It is all thanks to Mosel's very cool climate. Temperatures in the summer often don't even rise above 65 degrees. This allows for a long growing season, concentrating flavors and creating beautiful acidity.
