Zeltinger Himmelreich Kabinett Halbtrocken Riesling

Thought tonight I would try a Riesling from one of my favorite areas of Germany in the Mosel. In this area was probably the first wine that got me really started back in the early 80's, it was. Zeller Schwartz Kats. This wine tonight has the aromatics of Honey, White Peach, Jonagold Apples, with hints of floral notes. When the wine rolled over my lips across my tongue I am getting a bit of viscosity that I like with a good silkyness. Peach, pear and a citrus zest come across in a big way and wet rock minerality and a light acidity that doesn't rip at the tongue. This wine has brought me back to those early 80's.

Mouthwatering, delicate and playful. Great Balance of acidity and RS with lime and orange piths, nectarine, subtle floral notes.

Fairly dry with nice fruit, clean finish.

In magnum.

Wheels within wheels. I can't recommend Selbach-Oster enough. Or Mosel Rieslings generally. It's great and then you sit there for a bit and it gets way way better.

Good. Acid could be a bit higher. Nice complexity for the price.
With home made Indian.. lamb Madras ...potatoes and cauliflower...sambar...chana masala

Loved it! Lemon-dipped green apple—the sweetness is perfectly balanced with juicy, mouthwatering acidity. Nice underlying petrol and a mellow impression of botrytis. The finish lasts at least 20 seconds or more. I'm falling in love with Rieslings big time...
