2017 Selbach Oster Riesling Kabinett

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: 92 points

Predominantly from the Zeltinger Himmelreich, the 2017 Riesling Kabinett is bright and subtle on the ripe, fruity, slightly mineral and herbal, very elegant and refined nose with its delicate slate aromas. Salty-piquant and fresh on the aromatic and fruity but lithe and crystalline palate, this is another Mosel Kabinett at its best. The sweetness of less than 30 grams per liter is just charming here, where it is combined with 9.5% alcohol. This is a highly stimulating, fresh and grippy Kabinett that you can enjoy even in the sun at 35 degrees Celsius. Almost 20,000 bottles produced. Tasted in March 2019.
