Joh. Jos. Prum Wehlener Sonnenuhr Auslese 0.375L 2006

Joh. Jos. Prüm’s Wehlener Sonnenuhr Auslese 2006 is a benchmark Mosel Riesling from one of Germany’s most revered estates. Sourced from the famed blue slate slopes of Wehlener Sonnenuhr, it combines piercing precision, delicate sweetness, and the elegant, low-alcohol style that has made Prüm a reference point for classical German wine.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it typically shows a bright golden hue with exceptional clarity and sheen. The nose is refined and expressive, with aromas of ripe peach, apricot, citrus blossom, green apple, slate, and a subtle honeyed note that unfolds with air. On the palate, the wine is beautifully balanced, with concentrated fruit, vibrant acidity, and a fine mineral backbone that keeps the sweetness in perfect check. It should feel silky and luminous rather than heavy, with a long, cool finish and excellent aging potential; in a strong vintage like 2006, this wine can continue developing complexity for many years, gaining notes of petrol, dried fruit, and spice.

Production
Wehlener Sonnenuhr is one of the Mosel’s most celebrated vineyard sites, defined by steep slopes, blue Devonian slate, and a cool climate that promotes slow ripening and remarkable aromatic finesse. The grapes for this Auslese are typically harvested by hand in multiple selective passes, ensuring only fully ripe, healthy berries are chosen. Vinification at Joh. Jos. Prüm is traditionally gentle and minimal-intervention, with slow fermentation that preserves purity, delicacy, and terroir expression.

Food & Serving
This Auslese is an excellent match for fruit-based desserts, tarte Tatin, poached pears, apple cake, or crème brûlée, but it also shines with salty or spicy dishes such as blue cheese, foie gras, or lightly spicy Asian cuisine. Serve well chilled, ideally around 8–10°C, and decanting is generally not necessary; however, a little time in the glass can help the wine раскры its full aromatic range.

Producer
Joh. Jos. Prüm is one of Germany’s most iconic family-owned estates, founded in the early 20th century and based in Wehlen on the Mosel. The estate has played a major role in defining the style and reputation of ageworthy Mosel Riesling, particularly from top sites such as Wehlener Sonnenuhr, Graacher Himmelreich, and Bernkasteler Badstube. Its wines are widely admired for their purity, precision, and longevity, and the name Prüm remains one of the most respected in German wine.
