Dr. Loosen Wehlener Sonnenuhr Spatlese 2005

Wehlener Sonnenuhr (The Sundial of Wehlen)
This precipitously steep, rocky vineyard consistently yields some of the most elegant and sophisticated white wines in the world. The mineral-rich blue Devonian slate soil gives Wehlener Sonnenuhr (pronounced vay-len-er zon-en-ooer) wines a crisp acidity that perfectly balances the pure peach and lemon fruit. The 2005 Spätlese from Wehlener Sonnenuhr is exceptionally pure, with a very fine mineral nose, a silky texture and an elegant mineral finish that is long and juicy.
