96 Points James Suckling
Super elegant and super filigreed, with ravishing aromas of honeysuckle, white peaches and Asian pears, this is a very sophisticated and polished wine for this category. Incredibly refreshing, but also incredibly silky on the light-bodied palate. Then comes the extremely long and precise finish in which floral and wet-stone elements are almost perfectly interwoven.
94 Points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2023 Wehlener Sonnenuhr Kabinett is deep, pure, fresh and slatey on the precise, coolish and also floral nose. Mouth-filling, rich and dense on the palate, this is a round and juicy, very mineral, stimulating, savory and saline wine with fine, stimulating grip and an aromatic, well-structured and relatively dry finish. This is excellent and stylish in its terroir expression.
94 Points Vinous
The 2023 Riesling Wehlener Sonnenuhr Kabinett opens with some reduction, but the yeastiness blends with lemon. The palate is sleek and contoured, vividly fine, with cool, salty slate. Its blue, cool aspect shines with yellow lemon, creating a gorgeous complementary accord that accentuates absolute elegance.
92 Points Wine Spectator
A full, seductive kabinett, offering ripe apple and peach flavors that show real delicacy. Fluid and streaming through the well-meshed finish, which features bitter herb, earth and jasmine notes, with loads of chalky mineral and salty, wet slate elements, plus a hint of waxy honey. Drink now through 2040. 340 cases imported.
Winemaker Notes
This Riesling is rich in taste with a fresh, fruity delicate flavor. Serve slightly chilled.
