Parker about Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Riesling Spätlese 2023
The 2023 Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Spätlese opens with a highly delicate bouquet of finely crushed or weathered slate into which the fruit is bedded like a princess so that the terroir and Riesling fruit are already perfectly interwoven at this early stage. Round and juicy as well as saline and with mineral grip on the palate, this is a dense and stimulating saline and frisky Spätlese from one of the finest Moselle terroirs. It is endlessly saline and salivating on the crystalline, super clear and vivacious finish. This is a great, highly stimulating and finessed Spätlese indeed! 7% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine from AP 09 24 in January 2025.
Suckling over Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Riesling Spätlese 2023
Still quite closed and tightly wound, this firmly structured Mosel riesling spatlese needs some time for the fruit aromas to unfurl. Excellent concentration and delicacy of flavor in a more forthrightly mineral direction than the spring-like classics from the neighboring Wehlener Sonnenuhr. A long-distance runner that demands some patience.

Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Riesling Spätlese 2023
The Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Riesling Spätlese 2023 from Joh. Jos. Prüm presents a radiant, light golden color with youthful reflections. A subtly seductive bouquet of ripe white peach, juicy Williams pear, and candied lime unfolds on the nose, accompanied by delicate herbal notes and the smoky, mineral slate note typical of the Zeltinger Sonnenuhr. On the palate, the Spätlese wine displays an almost weightless elegance, supported by a precise, vibrant acidity that perfectly balances the delicate fruit sweetness. Aromas of yellow stone fruit, honeydew melon, and a hint of grapefruit unfold with impressive clarity, while the salty minerality provides additional depth. The long, complex finish leaves an invigorating freshness and underscores the enormous aging potential of this delicate Riesling. A great, yet floatingly light Moselle wine that shows brilliant radiance in its youth and will gain in complexity and finesse over the decades.
