Spices, pears, and apples are interspersed with smoky minerals in the aromatics of the 2003 Riesling Eiswein Zeltinger Himmelreich. Baked red berries, yellow plums and white fruits are found immersed in molasses in this big, brazen wine’s character. Though undoubtedly capable of lasting for over thirty years, the presence of burnt sugar flavors at such a young age lead me to recommend drinking this effort between 2007 and 2018.
