One curious thing that you might be able to shed light onto, Dale: when
I went to delete the wine from CT, I saw that it was filed under the
"Gobelsburger" Riesling, but the label shown didn't match mine. Mine
clearly said "Kamptal" on the bottom of the front, which appears to have
been true on the Gobelsburger bottling up until 2008 or so. Alas, I've
already recycled the bottle so can't check what's going on.

Unsure. The CT labels look like what I remember (don't remember if Kamptal was prominent). I actually have bought more of the Gobelsburger GV

The estate uses three different labels...
There is a 'Schloss Gobelsburg' label, a 'Gobelsburger' label and a 'Domäne
Gobelsburg' label.
The first one seems to be for their single vineyard bottlings so I'd guess
it is a sort of descending order with generic wines at the end (but these
are pretty good too!)
