Score 17.5/20 · Drink 2012-2028, Jancis Robinson MW, Mar 2023

Full bottle just 1,247 g. Deep gold. Some real development on the nose and the merest hint of TDN. Just the right amount of pure Riesling fruit sweetness to counterbalance the acidity. Lovely balance and life. Mountain-stream impression. (JR)

Score 17/20 · Drink 2005-2015, Jancis Robinson MW, May 2003

Pale green. Earthier and more open nose. Juicy, open, somewhat floral nose. Limy. Quite open, without the race of the Wehlener Sonnenuhr. (JR)

Score 93/100 · Drink 2007-2020, Pierre Rovani, Dec 2002

The bigger, thicker, broader 2001 Riesling Spatlese Graacher Himmelreich is the masculine, broad-shouldered brother of the feminine, elegant Wehlener Sonnenuhr Spatlese. White chocolate, sage, smoky minerals, and poached pears can be found in its rich aromas. Medium-bodied, velvety-textured, and soft, it is a large, dense offering with copious quantities of poached pear, slate, gun flint, candied lemon and red currant flavors. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2020. Importer: Chapin Cellars, Springfield, VA; tel. (703) 455-4700
