The sensuous curves of Art Nouveau design and joyful flourishes of rococo both give an idea of what Mosel riesling elegance means, but in a masterpiece like this it takes on a totally distinctive feeling unlike anything else on Planet Wine.
At this level, the Prüm wines are still light in body, but the flavour intensity and depth of character go up markedly. The 2023s deliver a mesmerising balance between elegance, freshness, juicy, even textural fruit (if not too cold) and savoury, slate-like minerality. There is considerably more depth of fruit here than in the Kabinett-level wines, although not perceptible sweetness. Instead, it is a question of more flesh, more power and, therefore, wines that can stand up to richer food.

The sensuous curves of Art Nouveau design and joyful flourishes of rococo both give an idea of what Mosel riesling elegance means, but in a masterpiece like this it takes on a totally distinctive feeling unlike anything else on Planet Wine. The white peach fruit, white flower aromas and slatey minerality all tingle on your palate, then flicker on and on in a totally fascinating manner in the nearly endless finish. The touch of sweetness is already beautifully integrated, although the wine just began a decades-long life. Drink or hold

Anne Krebiehl MW - Decanter
The 2023 Riesling Wehlener Sonnenuhr Spätlese opens with a serene, stony, salty slaty breeze. The palate is exquisitely fine and very bright, luminous even, soaring upward as it reaches down into the slate, embodying the total elegance of the site. Slenderness and serenity are exemplary.
