Wehlener Sonnenuhr Spatlese Goldkapsel 2025

What kind of wine it is

Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Spätlese by Dr. Hermann is a sweet white wine that fully expresses the character of the Mosel. Produced from Riesling grapes, this still German wine is distinguished by its rich aromatic profile and marked freshness. On the nose, it offers intense hints of white peach, apricot, passion fruit and lime zest, accompanied by clear notes of white flowers, while on the palate it is silky, with an evident sweetness that is excellently balanced by a taut and lively acidity. Production takes place entirely in stainless steel, a technique that preserves the expressive purity of the grape variety before exploring the characteristics of its region of origin.

Where it comes from

This Riesling originates in the vineyards of Wehlen, within the Mosel region of Germany. The peculiarity of this area lies in its soils, which are exceptionally rich in slate, and in the historic Sonnenuhr area. These specific soil characteristics give the wine its unmistakable mineral imprint of wet stone. Such pedoclimatic conditions prove essential for achieving a remarkable sugar concentration combined with a marked freshness.

How it is produced

The production process begins with an autumn late harvest, aimed at picking clusters with a high degree of ripeness and residual sugar. In the cellar, vinification follows a purely artisanal approach, with alcoholic fermentation taking place exclusively in steel tanks. The wine does not involve any time in wood and completes its ageing in the same containers to keep the primary aromatic expression unaltered. This technical choice enhances the organoleptic profile, ensuring the final product has a perfect balance and an extraordinary drinkability.
