About this Item
The Wehlener Sonnenuhr vineyard is one of the most esteemed sites in the Mosel region, renowned for its steep, south-facing slopes and blue slate soils, which contribute to the unique character of the Riesling grapes grown there. Auslese is a classification in German winemaking that indicates a late-harvested wine made from grapes with high levels of ripeness and sweetness.

Critics Ratings
‘Stunning. Very aromatic and expressive, offering rose, apricot, lime and mineral notes allied to a clear, gossamer frame. Well-balanced, though somewhat soft in structure. Forward today, the finish should pick up more intensity with age. Best from 2008 through 2028.’ - Bruce Sanderson, Wine Spectator, 94/100 (June 2017)
