Dale, I cannot stop drinking two 2004s from Selbach-Oster. Both the Kabinett and the Spatlese from Zeltinger-Schlossberg vineyard are outstanding. Specially the Spatlese. I have not tasted any Auslese from S-O in that vintage but I have marked in my TO-BUY list, a case of each.
That is remarkable, since 2004 was a very tough vintage in the eastern part of the Loire. The secs I tasted at Huet seriously underwhelmed me. Such a great difference between east and west Loire in that year.
Best,
S.
