"The 2022 Zeltinger Schlossberg Riesling Auslese opens with a clear and intense yet also very fine bouquet with flinty slate and iodine aromas intertwined with ripe and elegant fruit aromas. Lush and round as well as vital and saline on the palate, this is a stimulating Auslese based on seasoned, perfectly ripe and golden-yellow grapes. This is a beautiful Riesling Auslese with a savory and stimulating saline/lemon-bitter finish. 7.5% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine in November 2023."
