Description
Joh. Jos. Prüm’s Wehlener Sonnenuhr Auslese Goldkapsel is one of the Mosel’s most sought-after sweet Rieslings, combining extraordinary precision with effortless elegance. From one of Germany’s greatest vineyard sites, this half-bottle captures the estate’s signature balance of ripe fruit, racy acidity, and delicate mineral depth, with the Goldkapsel designation signaling exceptional concentration and selection.
Tasting Notes
Expect a pale, luminous golden hue and an intensely refined bouquet of white peach, apricot, lime blossom, honeyed citrus, and slate-driven minerality. With air, the aromatics become more layered and nuanced, showing a classic Mosel perfume that is both crystalline and alluring.
On the palate, this Auslese is supple and beautifully textured, with concentrated stone fruit, candied citrus, and a precise spine of acidity that keeps the sweetness perfectly in check. The finish is long, pure, and mineral, with excellent aging potential; in a good cellar, it should evolve gracefully for decades, gaining depth, spice, and complexity.
Production
Sourced from the iconic Wehlener Sonnenuhr vineyard in the Mosel, this wine comes from steep, slate-rich slopes that help create the region’s hallmark combination of ripeness and tension. The cool climate and reflective river influences allow Riesling to develop slowly, preserving acidity while building aromatic intensity and natural sweetness. Harvesting is carried out selectively, with only ripe, healthy berries chosen for Auslese-level concentration, and the wine is vinified with great care to retain purity, finesse, and site expression.
Food & Serving
A wonderful match for fruit tarts, tarte tatin, crème brûlée, blue cheese, foie gras, or spicy Asian dishes that benefit from a touch of sweetness. Serve well chilled, ideally around 8–10°C, and no decanting is usually necessary; a brief pause in the glass is enough to let the wine open and show its aromatic precision.
