Riesling Spätlese Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Goldkapsel 2013

The 2013er Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Riesling Spätlese (Golden Capsule) proves hugely backward and only gradually reveals an impressively mineral nose wet stones and a hint of petrol as well as a fruity presence of greengage and mirabelle. The wine still proves completely closed on the palate, where some sharp acidity is still negotiating the terms of its blending into the beautifully creamy flavors of lemon zest, mirabelle and pungent earthy spices. This is best left alone for another five to ten years before enjoying what could become a nice albeit austere and focused expression of Zeltinger Riesling.
