Slightly burnished in hue, the 1983 Riesling Wehlener Sonnenuhr Auslese nevertheless appears youthful, especially considering it is now over four decades old. The bouquet is Riesling in excelsis! Honeysuckle intermixed with lemon verbena, hints of melted wax and pressed white flowers are all delivered with exquisite delineation and focus. The palate follows suit with a killer line of acidity that imbues this Riesling with so much tension and vitality. The 1983 is a more textural Auslese than one with obvious fruit flavours. There is weight in the mouth and a slightly resinous texture. Hints of peach skin and desiccated apricot emerge with aeration. Perhaps with age, this comes across as an Auslese on the lower side of residual sugar for the category. It feels so effortless, exuding everything great about Riesling, about the Mosel, about JJ Prüm.
