2023 Dr. Loosen Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Spatlese Mosel
Winemaker Notes: The famous Sonnenuhr vineyard, in the village of Wehlen, produces the quintessential Mosel Riesling Kabinett: elegant and refined, with a racy texture and endless charm. This precipitously steep and rocky vineyard yields some of the most elegant and sophisticated white wines in the world. The distinctive blue slate soil gives the wines a delicate, crisp acidity that perfectly balances the pure peach and lemon fruit. It’s a lively wine that dances gracefully on the palate.
CRITICAL ACCLAIM
Vinous - "The 2023 Riesling Wehlener Sonnenuhr Spätlese teases with ripe Amalfi lemon peel and summer breezes scented with lemon, carrying the promise of apricot and peach. The palate delivers wonderfully lemon-laced peach compote, utterly aromatic, vividly fruity yet absolutely clear and stony. Lemon peel gives this a wonderful contour and precision." 
James Suckling - "Very succulent but every bit as elegant, with a fantastic creamy texture and a wet-stone freshness that makes this extremely enticing. The white flower and green apple aromas only add to that, and the delicacy at the end is fantastic. Very long and subtle finish. Drink or hold."
