Wehlener Sonnenuhr, Riesling Auslese Goldkapsel, 2003

Again, we see in Wehlener an intellectual, aristocratic style of noble sweet that stains with a firmer, saltier, more mineral impression allied to subtly complex, interwoven fruit. Tense and less fruit driven in style, this GK is very pure with a high level of slatey acidity, super long and superior. One of the very best and most memorable sweet wines we tasted this year.
