“The Mosel estate of Selbach-Oster has been in the hands of the Selbach family since 1661. Johannes Selbach is currently at the helm. The close-knit family, based in Zeltingen, own a total of 16 ha of vines, with plots in this and some neighbouring villages; they include some of Germany’s finest vineyards, including Zeltinger Sonnenuhr, Wehlener Sonnenuhr and Graacher Domprobst.”

We always feel very privelaged to have Johannes Selbach visit our store and we relish the chance to revisit his wonderful Rieslings. Join us for a tasting with one of Germany’s (and the world’s) most revered winemakers as he walks us through a selection of his wines. Not to be missed.
