Flatiron Wines Seminar: Selbach-Oster w Johannes Selbach (Skurnik Wines, New York, NY): Big on the nose. Perfumed. Florals. Peach and pineapple. Deep. Lively and high acid. Deep fruit peach a bit of pineapple. Spice. Quite dry tasting. Finish is nearly dry w peach and peach pit. I think I preferred the 86 by a bit - the balance on the palate was better. I think this had dried out enough that the 90 acid was starting to poke out. Nose - 5.5/6, Palate - 5/6, Finish - 4.5/6, Je ne Sais Quoi - 1-1.5+/2 = 16-16.5/20.

Skurnik Wines & Flatiron Wines tasting of Selbach-Oster. A peek into perfection. The fruit is preserved - pears and apples. Creamy texture, incredibly well balanced, integrated. Long finish but muted, with a light lingering sweetness, traveling places... Highly recommended, if you can find it!
