96 points Mosel Fine Wines: "The 2021er Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Auslese offers a superbly complex and pure fresh nose of candied grapefruit, vineyard peach, verbena, almond cream, smoke, and a hint of cassis. The wine proves superbly honeyed and creamy on the palate, where riper elements of pineapple, honeyed peach, and apricot are wrapped in candied citrusy fruits. The wine is intense and still quite broad but the finish is already pure and hugely long. This is a splendid refined Auslese, which just needs time to develop all its facets. 2036-2061. (Dec 2022)"
96 points Anne Krebiehl, MW (Vinous): "A surprisingly open nose defines the 2021 Riesling Wehlener Sonnenuhr Auslese, revealing an herbal savor that is reminiscent of moss, chervil, and carrot top, but just a hint. The palate is a gorgeously concentrated stream of ripe citrus, combining the aromatic intensity and ripeness of Amalfi lemon, the brightness of lime and the sweetness of sugared orange flesh. So direct, so precise, sweet but utterly balanced. Clear as a bell. (Sweet) Drink: 2030-2050. (Jun 2023)"
95 points John Gilman (View From the Cellar): "The 2021 Wehlener Sonnenuhr Auslese from Weingut Prüm is yet another stunning young wine. The bouquet is young, but already pure and precise, wafting from the glass in a beautiful blaze of pear, white cherries, hints of the yellow plum to come, a gorgeous base of slate, vanilla custard, white lilies, apple blossoms and bee pollen. On the palate the wine is vibrant, mediumfull and complex, with a lovely sense of incipient creaminess at the core, beautiful soil signature, zesty acids and laser-like focus on the long, pure and seamlessly balanced finish. A stunning young Auslese! 2031-2100. (Mar/Apr 2023)"
