Clear, gold with light green tinge. Maybe can detect the petrol aroma note that german rieslings are supposed to have? Zesty, fruity, with high acidity and slightly sweet taste at the end, and a mineral like finish. Medium body and finish, lingers on the tongue. Very drinkable. Compared with Penfolds Koonunga Hill Autumn Riesling 2018, almost everyone preferred the Selbach. I choose this because wanted to try a typical riesling from Mosel, bonus that this is from south-facing vineyard. Taco lunch, National Day. Bought from Wine Connection, $35
