Product Description:
The soul of the Mosel, bottled with grace and gravity. The 2023 Joh. Jos. Prüm Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Spätlese is a masterclass in Mosel elegance—an iconic vineyard translated through the lens of a perfectly pitched vintage. This steep, stony site—with its dizzying 70% gradient, grey slate soils, and pinpoint south-southwest exposure—produces wines that are as timeless as they are thrilling. Here, the Prüm family shows exactly why this vineyard has become synonymous with German Riesling at its highest level.

Expect white peach, lemon blossom, and flint on the nose, followed by a palate that floats and grips all at once—filigreed sweetness, shimmering acidity, and deep minerality in perfect tension. It's not loud; it's quietly commanding, a Spätlese of understated richness and remarkable finesse. Though already harmonious, this wine is built to reward decades of patience in the cellar.

Put simply: if you’re going to understand the magic of Mosel Riesling, this is where to begin—and linger.

Reviews & Accolades
The sensuous curves of Art Nouveau design and joyful flourishes of rococo both give an idea of what Mosel riesling elegance means, but in a masterpiece like this it takes on a totally distinctive feeling... The white peach fruit, white flower aromas and slatey minerality all tingle on your palate, then flicker on and on in a totally fascinating manner... – James Suckling, 97 Points

The 2023 Riesling Wehlener Sonnenuhr Spätlese opens with a serene, stony, salty slaty breeze. The palate is exquisitely fine and very bright, luminous even... Slenderness and serenity are exemplary. – Antonio Galloni, Vinous, 96 Points

Concentrated and very intense on the fruit-driven, deep and spicy nose... elegant and refined on the dense and seriously structured, salivating palate... endlessly salty in the present. – Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, 95+ Points

Ein Hochgenuss in allen Facetten... filigran und mundfüllend zugleich. Die Struktur ist atemberaubend... sollte man bestenfalls von beiden genug im Keller haben. – Heiner Lobenberg, 96–98 Points
