Spätlese, literally "late harvest," gives Riesling extra ripeness and a touch of sweetness that Mosel winemakers know how to balance against the grape's naturally bright acidity, and this 2023 bottling from Selbach-Oster works within that classic German framework. Grown along the steep river slopes of the Mosel, it is a white built on the interplay of orchard fruit, delicacy, and lift rather than weight.
