Wehlener Sonnenuhr is a steep and rocky vineyard with light soils and the purest blue slate of any Mosel vineyard. This is considered to be the premier site for J.J. Prüm and the 2015 Spätlese certainly lives up to that reputation as it opens with striking aromas of fresh lime, white peach, green tea, honey blossom and crushed stones. This elegant Riesling continues to impress with it beautiful balance and concentrated flavors which are backed by gorgeous acidity and minerality taking this into the mouthwatering finish. Today this is extreamly compelling, however wines from this site have the reputation as some of the most ageworthy wines in the Moesl and I certinaly do no see an exception here.
