James Suckling

Reviewed August 2024
Extremely concentrated and compact, with stacks of floral honey character and a samurai sword-like acidity on the medium- to full-bodied palate. This is as tense as it is dense, with a drive and energy that promises decades of aging potential. Still so youthful. From 120-year-old vines. Drink from release.

Notes

Wehlener Sonnenuhr takes its name from the sundial on its steep, slate-rich slopes above the Mosel. Max Ferd. Richter’s 2023 Riesling connects this distinctive vineyard with the Auslese tradition: the designation refers to wines made from selected, very ripe grapes. This three-star Cask 42 bottling is presented in a 375ml half-bottle.
