Reviewed August 2023Welcome to the yellow peach supernova! And this incredible fruit is married to a fabulous freshness that creates a completely uplifting harmony that the delicate grape sweetness beautifully underlines. Super-bright finish that is almost perfectly balanced. Drink or hold. Screw cap.

Wine Advocate
The 2022 Zeltinger Schlossberg Riesling Spätlese offers a clear and finely flinty bouquet of crushed rocks and precise, bright, slightly citric fruit aromas. Lush and concentrated, with lively fruit acidity and savoriness, this Spätlese tastes like a ripe Riesling berry. This is a superb terroir for dry summers such as 2022 due to 40-year-old vines rooting on a layer of finely weathered gray and blue slate. 8% stated alcohol. Screw cap closure. Tasted at the domaine in November 2023.(SR)

Vinous
The 2022 Riesling Zeltinger Schlossberg Spätlese was harvested in various parcels at the foot and in the middle of the site. It is redolent of ripe red apple, with a floral overtones. The sweet palate adds ripe, yellow peach flesh to this tarter apple expression, edging it lightly with riper citrus. The finish is mouthwatering on this light-bodied, ever so slightly textured and most harmonious wine with 76g/L of residual sugar. (Sweet)(AK)
Notes
92pts Mosel Fine Wine: "AP: 22 23. The 2022er Zeltinger Schlossberg Riesling Spätlese is a sweet wine with a beautiful nose made of pear, starfruit, passion fruit puree, apricot blossom, cream, and fine spices. The wine develops the subtle creaminess of an Auslese on the palate and leaves a nicely juicy feel in the long finish. This is beautifully made in an engaging and intensive style. 2032-2052."
