Coming Soon - 2024 Joh Jos Prum Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Kabinett

The Wehlener Sonnenuhr vineyard has become intrinsically tied to the name of Joh. Jos. Prum. The estate owns seven hectares of this majestic site, which is largely planted with ungrafted vines and features very thin topsoil over Devonian slate (in some areas, the plants grow directly out of pure rock). Wehlener Sonnenuhr has the highest pure stone content of all the Prum vineyards and, along with neighbouring Zeltingen, is the steepest, boasting a dizzying 65 to 70 percent gradient. The forest resting above the vineyard also acts as a natural water regulator for the slope.

Other Reviews...
The 2024 Wehlener Sonnenuhr Kabinett displays lovely fruit intensity with subtle earthy notes, floral nuances and a hint of reduction. Full-bodied, juicy and piquantly racy on the palate, this is a fresh, elegant and ever-light-footed Kabinett yet with a sensual, juicy character. This is AP 05 25. 8.5% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine in March 2026. Drink 2026-2050.

Stephan Reinhardt - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

The 2024 Riesling Wehlener Sonnenuhr Kabinett opens with subtle hints of creamy woodruff, candied angelica and wet slate. The palate is lightness itself, like a veil of scented fruit referencing green apple, supple, sweet but tart citrus, like juicy, pale pomelo, rounded out with a touch of white peach. It is wonderfully serene, cooling, elegant and precise. Drink 2025-2050.

Anne Krebiehl MW - Vinous

Wonderfully expressive nose of honeysuckle and fresh garden herbs. Juicy, light-bodied palate with creaminess, slatey minerality and very elegant acidity. Long, zesty finish with plenty of mandarin orange character. Drink or hold.
