Spatlese white kapsel
Lean, zesty Riesling, with a refreshing, more-ish character. Flint-dry, yet quite mellow in character from time in bottle and the high Prädikat level; lime, lemon-peel, orange-peel and a touch of kiwi. Great fun, easy to enjoy, and a bargain at the price! (JH 05/02/22)

Stephan Reinhardt
The 2016 Riesling Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Riesling Spätlese (White Capsule) opens with beautifully ripe and elegant fruit intertwined with reductive and flinty notes with crunchy slate aromas. Silky, lush and seamless on the palate, this is a highly finessed and elegant Spätlese with stimulating balance and super fine tannin structure. It is the most elegant, balanced and perhaps also the most classic Mosel Spätlese in the dry style. The finish is clear, fresh and very salty—a crystalline and persistent Sonnenuhr of great class. 95 points
