The Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Auslese Goldkapsel Auction Wine 2000 from Weingut Joh. Jos. Prüm on the Mosel is a benchmark expression of German Riesling at its most sublime. Crafted from a highly selective harvest in the 2000 vintage, this wine presents breathtaking finesse and complexity. On the nose, it unfolds a captivating bouquet of ripe stone fruit, candied lemon, blossom honey, and floral notes, underpinned by the fine, smoky blue-slate minerality that only the famed Wehlener Sonnenuhr can deliver. On the palate, a thrilling interplay between opulent sweetness and vibrating acidity unfolds, never feeling heavy despite its remarkable concentration. Silky, almost ethereal in texture and carried by extraordinary inner tension, flavours of yellow stone fruit, passion fruit, quince jelly, and delicate honey linger at length on the finish. Crowned with the gold capsule denoting a top auction selection, this wine belongs to the absolute pinnacle of German Riesling culture and possesses decades of ageing potential.
