97+ points Stephan Reinhardt (Wine Advocate): "The 2021 Riesling Wehlener Sonnenuhr Auslese *** (Golden Capsule) is bright, pure and fresh on the still discreet but very delicate nose that shows perfectly ripe white fruit and deeper, finely weathered, flinty slate aromas. Lush and round on the palate, this is a highly finessed and stimulating saline and savory Auslese with crystalline, finely grained but nervy acidity and a long and intense yet weightless finish. The wine is finely structured but delivers mouth-filling delicate fruit and is almost irresistible at this early stage. 7.5% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine in May 2023. (May 2023)"

97 points Mosel Fine Wines: "The 2021er Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Auslese *** (Golden Capsule) has a magnificent nose of almond cream, lozenge, verbena, mint, coconut, candied tangerine zest, and smoke. The wine has a splendid playful side on the palate, where delicate creamy elements are wrapped into candied citrusy fruits. The wine is intense and almost powerful yet there is great finesse and elegance. This is really spectacular! 2031-2061. (Dec 2022)"
