Prüm - Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Auslese Lange Goldkapsel  1976 - 0,7 l","description":"\u003cp\u003eA remarkable mature Riesling from one of the Mosel’s most celebrated vineyards, the 1976 Joh. Jos. Prüm Wehlener Sonnenuhr Auslese Lange Goldkapsel combines the elegance of a great vintage with decades of bottle development. Sourced from the steep, sun-exposed Wehlener Sonnenuhr, this rare Prädikatswein reflects the exceptional longevity for which Joh. Jos. Prüm’s finest sweet Rieslings are renowned.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe wine shows a deep golden hue, a natural indication of its long maturation in bottle. Its bouquet is intense and layered, offering ripe peach and apricot alongside honeyed notes and the subtle complexity that comes with age. On the palate, it is rich, creamy and beautifully balanced, with concentrated fruit, polished sweetness and refreshing acidity. A mineral character carries through to the long, elegant finish.\n\nThis is a fully mature wine that should be enjoyed for its developed character, although well-stored bottles of top-quality Mosel Riesling can remain rewarding for many years. As with any mature wine, its condition will depend greatly on provenance and storage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Wehlener Sonnenuhr is a steep, renowned Mosel vineyard known for its favourable exposure, slate-rich soils and ability to produce Rieslings of both intensity and finesse. The Auslese designation indicates a wine made from particularly ripe, selectively harvested grapes, while the Lange Goldkapsel signals an especially prestigious selection. Detailed harvesting and cellar records for this historic bottle are not provided, but the wine’s balance of sweetness, acidity and minerality is characteristic of classic Mosel Riesling and has supported its extended bottle ageing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eServe lightly chilled, ideally at around 10–12°C, allowing the wine’s mature aromas to unfold in the glass. It is a natural partner for fruit-based desserts, apricot or peach tart, crème brûlée and blue or mature washed-rind cheeses. It can also be served as a contemplative aperitif. Decanting is generally not essential, but carefully standing the bottle upright before opening and pouring slowly can help separate any sediment; a brief airing in a small decanter may be beneficial if the wine initially seems reserved.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJoh. Jos. Prüm is one of the Mosel’s most respected Riesling estates, based in the village of Wehlen and closely associated with the Wehlener Sonnenuhr vineyard. The Prüm family has deep roots in the region, and the estate’s wines are celebrated for their purity, finely etched acidity and remarkable ageing potential. Its Auslese, Beerenauslese and other noble-sweet Rieslings are particularly sought after by collectors, making a mature Lange Goldkapsel from the 1976 vintage a distinctive bottle for both enthusiasts and connoisseurs.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Joh.
