Earth, flowers, and minerals can be found in the nose of the 2001 Riesling Kabinett Wehlener Sonnenuhr. This excellent value is vivacious, rich, broad, and gorgeously delineated. Intense flavors of lemon/lime-soaked minerals are detected in its refined core of fruit. Drink it over the next 5 years.
On a side note, subscribers who, like me, purchased Kerpen's 1990s are advised to drink them sooner rather than later. Even the Ausleses have hit their stride and will soon be past their peak of maturity.
