Bid on this 3-magnum lot of 2019 Selbach-Oster Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Rotlay Riesling Auslese Mosel (1.5L) (97RP, 96JS). Wine Advocate: The 2019 Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Riesling Auslese Rotlay is highly refined and pure on the delicate and complex nose. Juicy-piquant and salty on the palate, this is a spicy-mineral, very elegant and sweet yet precise and electric terroir Auslese of great precision and piquancy.

98 points Jean Fisch and David Rayer for Mosel Fine Wines: "AP: 18 20. The 2019er Rotlay, as it is referred to on the consumer label, was block-harvested at 128° Oechsle in this privileged sector of the vineyard situated near the border to Wehlen (the reference to Zeltinger Sonnenuhr is only provided on the back label), and was fermented down to noble-sweet levels of residual sugar. It offers a tantalizing and hugely complex nose of pink grapefruit, tangerine, orange peel, almond paste, yellow flowers, anise, and a dash of honey. The wine is hugely playful and deep on the palate, where concentrated flavors of botrytis (exotic fruits, honey, baked spices, and a touch of raisin) are wrapped into a most delicious ripe yet zesty acidity. The finish is hugely refined despite the high levels of residual sugar. This is a marvelously refined Auslese in the making! 2034-2079." (10/2020)

“So rich and creamy, yet so graceful, this is like an essence of all the ripe stone fruits you can imagine. Then comes the tightly focused, very long finish, where the generous sweetness of the front palate is swept away. Drink or hold.” (08/2020)
