Of all of the German wine regions, the Mosel wine region is only the third largest, but undoubtedly the most recognizable internationally. Before 2007 it was called Mosel-Saar-Ruwer, but was shortened to help take advantage of that name recognition. The region draws its name from the Moselle River that runs below many of the steep hillside vineyards.
Most Mosel wines, particularly inexpensive Riesling and white table wines, have an undeserved reputation for being, frankly, sweet. However, that is not always true as Germans are trending toward drinking drier wines. Thus these wines have begun to pick up traction and be exported outside of Germany. The classifications trocken (dry) and a newer non-regulated category called feinherb (off-dry, but sweeter than the old halbtrocken or "half dry" classification) are beginning to perhaps reflect modern wine drinking influences worldwide.

RP95+95+ pts. - Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate - 25th Aug 2022 The 2020 Wehlener Sonnenuhr Spätlese is pure, clear and flinty on the concentrated nose that is reminiscent of a fresh fruit salad served on a slate plate on an early summer morning. Light, lush and highly finessed but seriously structured on the palate, this is a savory, very clear and elegant Sonnenuhr Spätlese with great precision and finesse and highly stimulating salinity and mouth-watering grip on the finish. The acidity is crystalline and very delicate, making this another great Mosel Spätlese from the 2020 vintage. 7.5% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine from AP 37 21 in July 2022. (Stephan Reinhardt)SP9292 pts. - Wine Spectator - Oct 31, 2022 An energetic, well-built wine, with juicy peach, fleshy lychee and guava flavors set against fine mineral and racy acidity. Delivers a flash of ginger, which adds nice warmth to the zesty finish. Drink now through 2040. 160 cases imported. (Bruce Sanderson)

RP9696 pts. - Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate - 25th Aug 2022 The 2020 Graacher Himmelreich Spätlese offers a remarkably coolish, very bright, precise and delicate nose of very fine Riesling fruit and flinty slate aromas. Saline, perfectly round and refined on the palate, this is a filigreed but lush and oh-so-delicate and airy, virtually celestial Himmelreich with crystalline, highly delicate acidity. This is a pristine, light yet long and saline, incredibly frisky and elegant Mosel Spätlese whose clarity and finesse is mind-blowing. An incomparable beauty. 7.5% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine from AP 02 22 in July 2022. (Stephan Reinhardt)
JS9393 pts. - JamesSuckling.com - Thursday, September 23, 2021 Simultaneously juicy, very lively and elegant. Spot-on balance and brimming with white-fruit and lemon (fruit and blossom) aromas. Very clean and straight finish. Drink or hold. Screw cap.
RP9797 pts. - Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate - 25th Aug 2022 The 2020 Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Auslese opens with an intense bouquet of super ripe and concentrated, healthy shriveled raisins and overripe Riesling berries with very fine slate and flinty notes in the background. On the palate, the Zeltinger Auslese is clear, precise and crystalline, showing concentrated, saline and savory rather than sweet fruit brought to the dance by this delicate, crystal clear and mouth-watering acidity that make this a beautiful, already digestible Auslese whose bouquet and taste are aromatically two different worlds but logical. The fruit was shriveled in perfect condition, and the juice that came out reflects exactly this: freshness, precision and perfect ripeness. A fabulous Auslese from the "neighboring" Sonnenuhr. 7% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine from AP 17 21 in July 2022. (Stephan Reinhardt)
JS94+94–95 pts. - JamesSuckling.com - Thursday, September 23, 2021 I love the mandarin-orange, bergamot, spice and curry-leaf aromas that pour from the glass. So much succulence, but also so much drive make this a very exciting Spätlese. Very bright and clean finish that extends a long way out.
RP93+93+ pts. - Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate - 25th Aug 2022 The 2021 Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Kabinett offers a clear, precise and pure, lovely slate-driven bouquet with citric fruit and some cassis and gooseberry aromas. Crystalline, linear and fresh on the palate, this is an elegant, lush and silky-textured, precise and almost sharp but also round and finely sweet Kabinett from the Himmelreich that shows red and black currant notes on the aftertaste. A gorgeous Kabinett that has to be aged for 10–15 years. Sourced from 80-year-old vines on pure gray slate. Bottled with a spectacular total acidity of 12 grams per liter, but you don’t feel the grams of acidity; and believe me, it’s serious but balanced by extract and almost 50 grams per liter of residual sugar. 7.5% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine in July 2022. (Stephan Reinhardt)
RP95+95+ pts. - Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate - 30th Oct 2020 From 80- to 90+-year-old vines in the original plot below the sundial, the 2019 Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Spätlese is very precise and fresh on the flinty, slatey and crisp fruit bouquet. Juicy-piquant and sweet on the palate, this is a tight and crispy, very intense yet still sulfuric Spätlese from a really great terroir. The fruit is still fresh and precise and was picked together with the dry GG selection, which is picked from the inner part with a higher acidity, whereas the Spätlese is from the outside berries that have more ripeness. The 2019 should be aged for at least 10 years. Tasted at the domain in September 2020.
WE8787 pts. - Wine Enthusiast - 4/1/2021 While the nose is quiet, there’s loads of easy, juicy white peach and grapefruit flavors in this straightforward medium-sweet Riesling. Sunny tangerine acidity and just a whiff of freshly laundered linen linger on the finish. Drink now. (Anna Lee C. Iijima)
