Il Riesling Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Spätlese feinherb "Ur" Alte Reben di Selbach Olster è un vino raffinato e complesso, nato tra le vigne antiche della regione di Mosel, in Germania. Questo Riesling rappresenta l’eccellenza del terroir delle colline di Zeltinger Sonnenuhr, dove le viti affondano le radici in suoli ricchi di ardesia, conferendo al vino una mineralità unica.

Alla vista, questo vino si presenta con un luminoso colore giallo paglierino, arricchito da riflessi verdognoli. Il bouquet olfattivo è intenso e complesso, caratterizzato da note di frutta a polpa bianca come mela e pera, accompagnate da eleganti sfumature di agrumi e fiori bianchi. Sullo sfondo si percepiscono delicate tracce di erbe aromatiche e una distintiva mineralità che richiama la pietra focaia.

Al palato, il Riesling Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Spätlese feinherb “Ur” Alte Reben offre un perfetto equilibrio tra dolcezza e acidità. La dolcezza discreta tipica della classificazione Spätlese viene bilanciata da una vivace acidità che garantisce freschezza e persistenza. Le note fruttate percepite al naso si ritrovano in bocca, arricchite da una sensazione cremosa e da un retrogusto minerale prolungato.

Questo Riesling è un’ottima scelta per accompagnare piatti a base di pesce, crostacei, formaggi freschi e piatti della cucina asiatica leggermente speziati. Ideale anche per apprezzare da solo, in momenti di relax e meditazione.

Winery history
The family has been involved in Moselle viticulture for centuries. The present-day estate is the result of family traditions and a reorganization in the 20th century; ownership and management have remained in family hands, with Johannes Selbach at the head of the modern estate. Over time Selbach‑Oster has gained an international reputation for its expressions of Riesling from single-cru sites in the Mittelmosel.
Production philosophy
The estate favors simplicity and care for the fruit: minimal intervention in the cellar, fermentations carried out almost exclusively with indigenous yeasts, extended maturation on the lees, and a strong focus on vineyard quality.
