Dr. Loosen Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Dry GG Alte Reben 2017 |
From the famous Laychen parcel, the 2017 Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling GG Alte Reben is bright, clear, fine and relaxed on the subtly concentrated nose that displays aromas of perfectly ripe stone fruit intertwined with delicate slate notes.
On the palate, this is a concentrated, lush, vital, crystalline, highly refined and complex Sonnenuhr with finely racy acidity, lots of energy, grip and mineral tension. This is a rich, concentrated, powerful but still refined, vital and elegant Sonnenuhr that will improve over the years in the bottle.
A bit tight, with white peach, kiwifruit and yellow apple notes, underscored by savory mineral elements. Hints of brown sugar and pine linger in the background before being scooped up by a wave of bright acidity, leaving a mouthwatering finish.
