Wehlener Sonnenuhr Spatlese, Weingut Joh. Jos. Prum 2015

Challenged by the 2015 Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Spätlese, the 2015 Wehlener Sonnenuhr Spätlese (AP 13) gives all its charm to keep its legendary number one status among the Jay-Jay classics. In fact, the 2015 opens with a very clear, fine and floral bouquet of white fruits, flowers and weathered slate. It's sweet, lush and juicy on the seductive palate, with a piquant acidity and tight, but still very elegant structure. This is a gorgeous Spätlese that has more sweetness and charm compared to the Zeltingen Spätlese; the latter is more straight, piquant and mineral, with less fruit flesh and sensuality, but intellectual ambitions.

This offers a stunning nose of delicately yellow fruits, white flowers, melon, and grapefruit. The wine is gorgeously smooth on the palate with nicely playful acidity and elegant fresh herbs bringing great freshness to the delicately creamy yet vibrant finish. This is plain beautiful with great presence and under toned ripe elegance. 2025-2045
