Parker about Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Spätlese 2001
Aromas of candied limes, smoky slate, and white pepper are found in the explosive nose of the 2001 Riesling Spatlese Wehlener Sonnenuhr. A sultry, seductive wine, it luxuriously slathers the taster's palate with rich, yet focused, layers of juicy lemons, red cherries, currants, blueberries, limes, and pears. Notes of candied raspberries make an appearance in this exceptional offering's unbelievably long finish. Pure, elegant, powerful, deep, and densely packed, it should get even better with cellaring.

Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Spätlese 2001
The Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Spätlese 2001 from the Joh. Jos. Prüm winery is an outstanding representative of the Mosel wines, perfectly showcasing the elegance and potential of this renowned region. The Joh. Jos. Prüm winery is known for its finely balanced Rieslings, which are characterized by an excellent balance of fruitiness, acidity, and minerality.
The 2001 vintage is particularly remarkable, producing a fascinating array of aromas. On the nose, the wine unfolds a seductive bouquet of ripe peaches, juicy apricots, and crisp apples, accompanied by delicate citrus notes and a hint of exotic fruits like pineapple. Floral notes and a subtle minerality round out the bouquet, lending it additional depth and complexity.
On the palate, the Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Spätlese 2001 impresses with a harmonious combination of sweetness and acidity. Ripe fruit aromas of peach, apricot, and apple are supported by a lively acidity that lends the wine freshness and vivacity. The texture is smooth and well-structured, with an elegant minerality that reflects the Mosel's slate soils. A hint of honey and delicate herbal notes complement the flavor profile, creating a complex and harmonious mouthfeel.
