Zeltinger Himmelreich 2018 Riesling is bright and flinty on the nose with dried white florals, apple and pear aromas. Dry, vibrant and harmonious on the palate with fresh apple, pear, lime, clover honey, nutty, vanilla and wet stone flavours vibrant and creamy on the palate. Lovely, rounded and elegant. Drink or hold.

Riesling Kabinett Halbtrocken food pairings: prosciutto and arugula salads, pork chops and applesauce, roast goose.

Reviews and Ratings

Yo'av rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
