Dr Loosen Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Spatlese 2022

JAMES SUCKLING 94 POINTS!
SHARPLY FOCUSED AND BEAUTIFULLY BALANCED RICHNESS

 

"Brimming with stone fruits with delicate floral honey and caramelized pear aromas. Ripe and generous, but with a lively acidity that keeps this moving briskly over the palate. Long finish in which creamy and crisp elements are beautifully balanced." - James Suckling

"The 2022 Riesling Wehlener Sonnenuhr Spätlese 2022, harvested without botrytis, shows a mere glimpse of lemon, almost of lemon balm, on the nose. The palate is sweet, referencing peach compote and citrus-laced gelee de fruit. The palate is fine and poised, always pricking with a lemon zestiness. The long, sweet finish is serenely balanced at around 55-60g/L of residual sweetness." - Vinous 

"The 2022er Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Spätlese takes a few minutes to open up, presenting notes of lime, freshly cut herbs, green apple, black pepper, flint, nutmeg, and candied orange. The wine shows a direct acid column and also a slightly tannic and tart edge, with plenty of citrusy fruits and spices. The finish is focused and salivating, with tartness also needing to integrate. This Spätlese is pretty much work in progress and needs a couple of years to fully blossom." - Mosel Fine Wines
