Description
“Also still in the Fuder barrel on the full lees. Will be bottled in July/August. Made from our estates oldest vines. Original ungrafted vines planted in the 1890s in the Brück sector of the Sonnenuhr. (Part of the original Sonnenuhr, directly on the river bank beneath the actual Sundial). I am very happy with this wine, and would say it is probably the best dry wine I every made. On the same level as the great 1993 dry Ausleses of my Father. More subtle nose than Juffer-Sonnenuhr. Smoky, reductive. Floral notes (White Blossom – Apple Tree), pink grapefruit, apricot and a lot of herbs and spices. Very well structured, lemon, white peach, very long and intense. Bracing mineral grip. But typical Sonnenuhr lightness and airiness. If that wine will not age for decades, I don’t know which dry white wine can.” – Constantin Richter
