If the 2003 Riesling Auslese Zeltinger Schlossberg**’s aromatics had not been completely dominated by SO2 it may have earned an exceptional score. Big, bold, and medium to full-bodied, this ample wine enthralls the taster with its sensual personality. Soft, oily-textured, and plush, its cotton candy, jammy raspberry, cassis, poached pear, spiced apple, and red currant jelly flavors linger throughout its sultry, prolonged finish. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2022. Importer: Terry Theise Estate Selections, imported by Michael Skurnik Wines, Inc., Syosset, NY; tel. (516) 677-9300
