Description

93 points John Gilman (View From the Cellar): “The 2020 Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Spätlese from the Prüm family is another simply stellar example of the vintage. The bouquet is a bit more primary today than the Badstube Spätlese, but shows beautiful potential in its blend of pear, apple, lime zest, slate minerality and a floral topnote of iris blossoms and violets. On the palate the wine is pure, full-bodied, focused and zesty, with a bit more mid-palate amplitude than the filigreed Badstube, great focus and grip, bright acids and a long, nascently complex and very promising finish. This will need a bit of bottle age to blossom. 2027-2065+. (Jan/Feb 2022)”

93 points Stephan Reinhardt (Wine Advocate): “Prüm’s 2020 Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Spätlese shows a clear, bright, intense and elegant bouquet that is discreet but deep and concentrated in its fruit and provided with very delicate notes of finely weathered slate and very fine swirls of caramel. Intense and lush on the palate, this is a very fine, slightly creamy-textured Zeltinger Spätlese with fine and rather mild acidity and a quiet and elegant finish. There is nothing spectacular here except for balance and its calm flow over the palate. 7.5% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine from AP 14 21 in July 2022. Drink: 2022-2060. (Aug 2022)”

93 points Mosel Fine Wines: “The 2020er Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Riesling Spätlese still proves flinty, quite smoky, and reductive at first before it almost reluctantly reveals its super nose made of stone fruits, vineyard peach, Conference pear, anise, and herbs. The wine is carried by a beautifully ripe and zesty acidity running through the palate which lifts up the ripe flavors of apricot, almond cream, and pineapple. The finish is light-weighted, very precise, and focused. This is a beautiful Spätlese. 2028-2045. (Nov 2021)”

93 points Bruce Sanderson (Wine Spectator): “[$85 list] This sleek white presents earth and root vegetable aromas that frame peach, lime and floral notes, with lilac and slate accents. Delicate and gossamer in texture, this is also intense, charming and long. Drink now through 2042. 50 cases imported. (10/31/22)”
