Note di degustazione
Very fine, bright fruit and fine stone/slate perfume flavors open the noble 2014 Riesling Wehlener Sonnenuhr Spätlese (AP #23). This is a full-bodied, round, intense, piquant and kicking Wehlener Sonnenuhr with a very juicy and intense sweetness, but a lingering minerality. Very sophisticated and complex, this is extremely promising. Don't drink before 2022, but certainly before you die.

Scents and flavors of ripe pear are garlanded with lily of the valley and heliotrope. Tang and piquancy of pear skin and seeds lend counterpoint and invigoration on a creamy palate, and the stone-lined, lusciously long, mouthwateringly salt-tinged finish is at once soothing and stimulating. At a mere 7.5 percent alcohol, this comes off as very delicate, yet not overly sweet. That it (as well as its auctioned counterpart) is so open and expressive relative to its fellow Prüm Spätlesen of the vintage comes as a surprise, since more often, this estate’s Wehlener Sonnenuhr bottlings hang back early on. (I did not taste a second non-auction bottling, A.P. #23.)
