Forrygende flot Auslese Riesling fra den sagnomspundne mark, Wehlener Sonnenuhr.
Med denne vin fra Joh. Jos. Prüm får man en mastodontisk Riesling, der besidder et helt enormt potentiale. Husets vine er generelt kendte og elskede for deres fornemme kompleksitet og massive lagringspotentiale. Vinene er ganske enkelt tæt på udødelige.
Med denne Wehlener Sonnenuhr Auslese 2022 får man allerede nu en stor vin, der åbner sig overlegent flot i duften med intens citrus, urter, våd skifer, røg, appelsinskal og blomsterhonning. I munden er vinen fyldig og coater mundhulen med lag på lag af modne frugtnuancer uden nogensinde at blive tung. Syren står knivskarpt i baggrunden og sørger sammen med et let saltet bid for en vin i eminent balance. Selvom det allerede nu smager fortryllende, er der potentiale til meget mere, hvis man lader dette mesterværk lagre trygt og godt i kælderen i mindst en håndfuld år.

The 2022 Riesling Wehlener Sonnenuhr Auslese opens with a notion of baked peach, especially baked peach skin, aromatic, slightly caramelized with concentrated fruit. Peach compote sweeps onto the palate, ripe and still with bite, just as cooked peach flesh appears, expressive and sweet but not overdone. This entire flight is a lesson in restraint. The long finish and aftertaste are tempered with citrus, corralling that expressive peach. Lovely, restrained, elegant. (Sweet)

While tightly wound in youth and too nervous to express itself fully, there's a core of sun-drenched peach and yellow cherry lusciousness that pulsates from within here. It's still subtle on the nose, but the palate can't hide the intensity of fruit and swirls of honey and hibiscus nectar waiting to unfurl. Delicate sweetness is balanced by a lifting spray of minerality and a spine of laser-edged acidity. Hold until 2030 at least; it's a wine to enjoy over decades.

Still very youthful on the nose, this is crammed with ripe peach, plus more delicate notes of pineapple and mangosteen. It’s a minor miracle that this kind of concentration can be packed into such a sleek, medium-bodied palate. What an amazing mouthfeel this has thanks to the seamless integration of slatey acidity and ripeness. Very long finish with spot-on balance. Drinkable now, but best from 2025.
Wine Spectator - 94
An impressively balanced and expressive auslese, with a plush well of guava, passion fruit and apricot preserves set against a wall of minerals. Alpine herbs and vibrant acidity give this a zingy freshness and racy feel, which carries the opulence well. Plum skin bitterness and some good structure make this complex and harmonious. Stunning. Drink now through 2045.

The 2022 Wehlener Sonnenuhr Auslese is clear, deep and dense on the clear and fresh as well as smoky but super detailed and saline nose. Rich and lush on the palate, this is a vibrantly fresh and savory, persistently saline and sustainable Auslese with a long, generous yet refined and mineral finish. It's very expressive and substantial. 8% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine from AP 17 23 in January 2025.
