Wehlener Sonnenuhr, Riesling, Kabinett, 2022
The drier soils of the Wehlener Sonnenuhr often display a deeper minerality which in this case ties all those lovely layers of fruit together. Animated and stimulating, the 2022 carries lots of little dancing notes of yellow berries, flowers and minerals. Very long and complex, a standout.
critic reviews
The 2022 Riesling Wehlener Sonnenuhr Kabinett has a subtle spice, an herbal pepper note uniting the slatey saltiness and still yeasty notes, slowly dissipating to reveal crushed rock notes. Gentle pepper frames the peachy mid-palate, juicy, sweet, and ripe, with deep and very fine fruit, always with that white pepper shimmer. Very pure and serene. The grapefruit tartness pops up on the finish, but the peach pulls through. Very fine, filling mouth and mind with brightness and elegance. (Sweet)
