Wehlener Sonnenuhr Kabinett, Weingut Joh. Jos. Prüm 2019

Still some yeastiness from the wild ferment, but this opens beautifully with aeration. A entire botanic garden of flowers of all colors and origins. Concentrated, yet so filigree and delicate, the finish super long and as refreshing as an Alpine stream. Perfect balance in this delightful no-man’s land between dry and sweet. Drink or hold.

The 2019 Wehlener Sonnenuhr Kabinett offers a clear and delicate bouquet of very fine slate and bright, perfectly ripe fruit aromas. Round and piquant on the palate, this is another filigreed and crystalline Kabinett with an intense, compactand very promising finish. The sweetness is delicate and well-countered by the mineral grip and salinity. Tasted at the domain in September 2020. Drink 2025-2040.

The 2019er Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Kabinett offers a discreet, very elegant, and gorgeously floral nose of white peach, herbs, almond cream, rosemary, and mint. The wine proves superbly balanced on the palate as the white juicy fruits are packed into delicately ripe and zesty acidity. The finish is both superbly smooth and nicely tight and focused. The wine leaves one with a great sense of mineral tension in the aftertaste. This is a gorgeous Kabinett in the making. 2029-2049
