J.J Prum Wehlener Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Spätlese 2022

J.J. Prüm is one of the benchmark names in Mosel Riesling, and this Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Spätlese shows exactly why the estate has such a devoted following. From one of the region’s most celebrated steep slate vineyards, it combines precision, elegance, and layered fruit with the unmistakable mineral drive that has made J.J. Prüm a reference point for generations of wine lovers.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, this 2022 Spätlese is clear and luminous, with a deep, complex nose that immediately calls to mind citrus peel and ripe orchard fruit, lifted by a subtle saline, slate-driven edge. The bouquet is compact yet expressive, hinting at both freshness and depth. On the palate, it is rich and generous without losing finesse, offering a beautifully textured, savory style with plenty of fruit concentration and mineral tension. The finish is fresh, mouthwatering, and long, with the kind of balance that suggests excellent aging potential; this wine should gain even more complexity over the coming years.

Production
This wine comes from the legendary Sonnenuhr site in Zeltingen, one of the Mosel’s most prized vineyards, known for its steep slopes and distinctive slate soils that help shape the wine’s aromatic precision and mineral character. J.J. Prüm typically works with careful hand harvesting and traditional cellar methods, allowing the vineyard expression and natural ripeness of the fruit to remain at the center of the wine’s identity.

Food & Serving
This Spätlese is a superb match for dishes with a touch of richness or spice, such as roast pork, duck, glazed poultry, or lightly spiced Asian cuisine. It also pairs beautifully with fruit-based desserts or simply as a contemplative wine on its own. Serve well chilled, around 8–10°C, and decanting is generally not necessary.
