Joh. Jos. Prum, Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Spätlese

This elegant and attractive white maintains its lightness from start to finish. Aloe and sage smoke infuse this buoyant, bright version’s core of guava, apple and pear. There’s good tension throughout, with chalky minerality, plus a floral lift that plays out on the long finish, where there’s a pleasing snappiness. Delicious and drinking beautifully now.

Joh. Jos. Prum, Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Spätlese 2022	96 James Suckling Here’s a very classic Mosel Spatlese with exactly the combination of richness, elegance and delicacy that makes this category unique. Such delicate white peach and sliced pear, rose and honeysuckle aromas. Very long finish that is as succulent as it is refined. You just want to linger there for as long as you can. Drink or hold.

Joh. Jos. Prum, Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Spätlese 2023	96-98 Vinous Serene and understated, the 2023 Riesling Wehlener Sonnenuhr Spätlese #17 comes with some reductive funk on the nose. Slightly creamy orange zest defines the palate, while the finest freshness spells tension and brightness. Every atom of this wine is full of aroma, yet it speaks softly. This displays wonderful Prüm elegance combined with the statuesque nature of the Sonnenuhr—purest poise. Available at auction: 330 bottles, 24 magnums. 93 Wine Spectator This elegant and attractive white maintains its lightness from start to finish.
