Mosel, Germany
Ripe, pure and highly stimulating, this Wehlener Sonnenuhr Kabinett from S. A. Prüm is an ageworthy Riesling in its prime at 12 years of age.
Pale yellow colour. Initial scent of diesel which soon blew off, after which the nose is a medley of apricot, peach, lavender, vanilla, honeydew melon and white pepper. Incredibly fresh, with a distinct sea breeze quality to it.
The palate is intense and sappy, with piquant lime, elderflower, ripe apples and even notes of strawberry and blueberry. Incredibly elegant, with a supple and long finish, this is a complex and accomplished iteration of the Kabinett style that should continue to age with grace.

Apple, peach, and lemon over soft minerality. Good acidity and lightly sweet. My idea of Riesling. Richard likes it too.

2008. Explosive pear, peach, and honeysuckle with some mineral and dew. dark gold color. Long long finish. Evolved over 3 days of tasting. Hold or drink. Though I'm buying another to drink.
