Zeltinger Schlossberg Riesling Spatlese, Selbach-Oster 2023

• Variety: Riesling • Region: Mosel • Vineyard: Zeltinger Schlossberg • Soil Type: Blue Devonian slate • Fermentation & Élevage: Natural fermentation in old Mosel Fuder\n\nZeltinger Schlossberg:\nA Grand Cru site, steeper overall than Himmelrich, but in comparison to Zeltinger Sonnenuhr, Schlossberg has deeper subsoil of crumbly, broken slate, mixed with organic matter and loam. The vineyard is also more further from the Mosel river and gets less of the effect from the wide water surface. The lower sections of Schlossberg (Bömer and Schmitt) are close to the mainly stone houses in the village, which radiate warmth back into the vineyard (a privileged situation akin to that of the Bernkasteler Doctor).
