A rare bottle from the celebrated 1964 vintage, the Joh. Jos. Prüm Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Feine Auslese Goldkapsel showcases one of the Mosel’s most prestigious vineyard sites. With its distinctive Goldkapsel designation and more than six decades of bottle age, it is a captivating choice for collectors and enthusiasts of mature German Riesling.

Tasting Notes
The wine displays a luminous golden hue, deepened by its long maturation in bottle. Its aromatic profile is richly developed, combining ripe peach and apricot with citrus tones and the subtle complexity associated with mature Riesling. On the palate, generous sweetness is balanced by refreshing acidity, giving the wine both richness and poise. A mineral character extends through the long, elegant finish. The 1964 vintage offers a fully mature drinking experience; given the wine’s age, enjoyment will depend on bottle condition, fill level and storage history.

Production
Made from Riesling grown in the steep, sun-exposed Wehlener Sonnenuhr vineyard on the Mosel, a site renowned for slate soils, excellent light exposure and wines of finesse and longevity. As a Feine Auslese, the wine was produced from carefully selected, naturally ripe grapes. Specific harvesting and vinification details for this historic bottling are not available, but the style reflects the traditional Mosel approach of preserving aromatic purity, residual sweetness and vibrant acidity.

Food & Serving
Serve lightly chilled at approximately 10–12°C. Its mature sweetness and lively acidity make it a natural partner for fruit-based desserts, apricot tart, crème brûlée and delicate pastries, while its depth also suits foie gras and blue cheeses. Because of its age, decanting is best approached cautiously: stand the bottle upright before opening and decant only if necessary to remove sediment, as prolonged aeration may diminish its delicate mature aromas.

Producer
Joh. Jos. Prüm is one of the most respected names in the Mosel, celebrated for elegant, long-lived Rieslings from renowned sites around Wehlen. The estate’s wines are particularly associated with the Wehlener Sonnenuhr vineyard, where steep slate slopes produce wines marked by fragrance, precision and remarkable aging potential. This 1964 Goldkapsel bottling represents a historic expression of the producer’s style and the enduring character of great Mosel Riesling.
