89 David Schildknecht - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

"Martin Kerpen's 2007 Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Kabinett exhibits the site typicity and impeccable balance one has come to expect based on many predecessors. With aromas of apple, vanilla, honey, lily, as well as the subtle creaminess often exhibited by Riesling from this site even in its lighter manifestations, it is easy for a youthful Wehlener Sonnenuhr Kabinett to be dominated by its sweetness, but here there is a crisp, clear, fresh apple and zesty citrus character that keeps things lively, a delicacy of touch and a tingling, saline, wet-slate mineral cast that together insure instant success not just on its own but at table. This little classic can be enjoyed anytime over the next 8-10 years."
