A beautifully balanced and classically styled Mosel Spätlese — radiant fruit, filigreed sweetness, and exquisite slate-driven precision.
The 2014 Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Spätlese opens with a pure, elegant aromatic profile: white peach, ripe pear, and yellow apple, intertwined with bright notes of lime zest, citrus blossom, and honeyed herbs. Beneath the fruit lies a refined mineral backbone of crushed slate, wet stone, and subtle smoky tones, unmistakably marking the Sonnenuhr site.
On the palate, the wine is silky, poised, and effortlessly flowing, offering a perfect interplay between sweetness and acidity. Flavors of stone fruit, ripe citrus, and apple compote glide across the palate, accented by hints of acacia honey, candied ginger, and a touch of white tea. The sweetness is luminous and finely tuned, never heavy, always lifted by vibrant, crystalline acidity.
The texture is elegant and supple, with a gentle phenolic grip that adds structure and depth. As the wine opens, nuanced notes of fresh herbs, lime pith, and flinty spice emerge, enhancing complexity and terroir expression.
The finish is long, delicate, and mouthwatering, resonating with ripe fruit, citrus freshness, and a lingering slate-driven salinity.
A superb Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Spätlese — graceful, harmonious, and beautifully expressive, offering immediate pleasure while possessing the balance and precision to evolve gracefully for 20+ years.
