"Bright and aromatic on the nose, the pale yellow 2013 Zeltinger Himmelreich Riesling Anrecht reveals clear grapefruit, lemon and lime aromas on the nose. Picked on November 8, this 8% virtual Auslese is rich (82 grams of residual sugar are countered by 9 grams of residual sugar), noble sweet and creamy textured and finishes piquant and limey. Despite the density and concentration this is a very stimulating cru."
