Parker about Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Riesling Spätlese 2022
The 2022 Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Spätlese is clear, deep and complex on the dense and savory nose that shows lemon zest aromas. Rich and lush yet also refined on the palate, this is a very elegant, textured and savory, saline as well as grippy Spätlese with mouth-filling fruit and mineral tension and a good, fresh and savory finish. 7.5% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine from AP 12 23 in January 2025.

Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Riesling Spätlese 2022

The Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Riesling Spätlese 2022 from Joh. Jos. Prüm impresses with refined elegance and typical Mosel finesse. The nose reveals a harmonious interplay of ripe peach, juicy apricot, and citrus fruits, underscored by floral nuances and a subtle slate minerality. On the palate, the wine is precise and balanced, with a lively, well-integrated acidity that perfectly balances the delicate fruit sweetness. The texture is smooth, yet light and swirling, with a subtle spiciness that adds additional excitement. The long, elegant finish is accompanied by fresh citrus fruit and a subtle saline note. A classic, expressive Spätlese Riesling with great aging potential, already a pleasure to drink.
