"A richer style, offering honey, lemon thyme and glazed apricot flavors cut with cool minerality. Concentrated and polished, with chamomile and dried chrysanthemum moving through, showing a lashing of verbena oil on the persistent, very pure finish. Excellent. Drink now through 2038. 50 cases imported."

"Skillfully crafted, offering a slightly syrupy texture that adds richness to its profile. Despite this, it boasts good intensity, with vibrant fruit flavors and a touch of minerality shining through. The length of the finish is solid and inviting. Skurnik Wines, Inc. —A.Z."

"Bursting with ripe stone fruit, fresh pineapple and a wide spectrum of citrus aromas, this great Mosel GG is a joy to experience. So rich and succulent on the medium-bodied palate, but also fabulous delicacy and detail. Fantastically long and filigreed finish with wonderful Amalfi lemon freshness. Drink or hold."

"The 2023 Riesling Zeltinger Schlossberg GG, picked in the exposed Braun parcel, offers seductive hints of peach on the nose. The palate adds creamy smoothness and bright lemon, with a supple texture that anchors it in the soil and hints tantalizingly at creamy peach. Everything is present and will come to the fore. This is delicious and understated."

"The 2022 Zeltinger Schlossberg Riesling GG is beautifully clear, refined and flinty on the intense nose that is coolish and warm at the same time in terms of coolish slate and ripe Riesling aromas. Mouth-filling, round and generous on the palate yet also savory and saline, this is a dense and intense, very mineral, complex and firmly structured Riesling of exceptional class and complexity. This is another great 2022 dry Riesling from Selbach that is one of the rare Must Buys of the vintage. 12.5% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine in November 2023."

"Offers precision and depth, with zesty mineral and spice notes infusing a base of dried apricot, kumquat and citrus peel. A chamomile detail and floral lift add range midpalate, while the long, dry, mineral-rich finish stretches way out. Drink now through 2035. 60 cases imported."
