"A delightful hint of salted caramel creeps into the nose and onto the palate of Prum's 2011 Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Auslese gold capsule, which when combined with apple jelly, honey and nougat not to mention a creamy and almost taffy-like texture, makes for a decidedly confectionary aura. Sweet liquid essences of lily, musky peony and gardenia as well as a faint oiliness and high glycerol enhance the luxuriantly seductive effect of this long-lingering performance, yet there remains a critical modicum of fresh apple and melon juiciness to complement the sense of levity in this elixir's finish and to render the next sip virtually irresistible.

" So concentrated and deeply flavoured but so light on its feet. Has stone fruit, melon, honeyed apple and a smoky, slate-lime minerality. Amazingly thick, rich and luscious, but holds itself above the heavyweight with glassy, citrus acidity. It’s a texture unto itself, really, when complexity of riesling gets to this point. Spectacular. "

"Fresh but honeyed apricots on the nose. A dusty mineral note holds the fruit in check at the moment then on the palate there is total purity and great intensity in a weightless kind of way. Elegant and sustained. "
