"Stacks of wild herb character and wet stone freshness make this an exciting riesling Kabinett in which the natural grape sweetness is barely perceptible. Only light-bodied, but with excellent concentration and a long, salty and stony finish, this is a remarkable expression of this great Mosel vineyard site. Drink or hold."

"The 2023 Riesling Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Kabinett, from elevated parcels in this site, spells stone and naked slate, opening into aromatic citrus with hints of green Seville orange peel and a breezy freshness. It has wonderful fill, vibrancy and beautiful structure. Untold riches lie at the core. Exquisite."

"The 2022 Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Riesling Kabinett opens with a very elegant and finely flinty bouquet of weathered slate. Mouth-filling, vital and with nervous mineral grip and tension, this is a lightweight but lush wine to be cellared for at least three more years. It is saline and expressive yet still too tight to show its best talents. 8.5% stated alcohol. Screw cap closure. Tasted at the domaine in November 2023."
