Wehlener Sonnenuhr, Riesling Auslese, Goldkapsel, 2005
justerini & brooks tasting note
Tighter on the nose and more reductive and backward, offering fine spice, slate and minerals. On the palate it presents an intense citrus burst, floral and bitter-sweet notes of almond blossom and pastry. This GK is super long and complex. Wonderful.

96/100Joel Payne,Vinous
(auction wine) Golden yellow. Christmas fruitcake with nectarine, white raisin and pure botrytis on the nose. High-toned, creamy and rich, with flavors of apricot nectar, fine slate and brown spices, with an elegant floral element. A sublime touch of botrytis adds complexity to the long, mineral finish.This is one of the finest ausleses of the vintage.
