Named after the sundial erected in the vineyard in 1842, Wehlener Sonnenuhr is the most famous vineyard in the Mosel. J.J Prüm owns five hectares of this precious vineyard. Extremely steep with optimal south-south west exposure, it yields fragrantly floral wines with ripe stone fruit aromas, underlying slately minerality and wonderful depth of flavour and structure. The Auslese wines are typically more reticent when young showing vivid crystalline citrus fruit and a backbone of tingling minerally acidity that will carry it gracefully for decades.

DOMAINE MOREAU-NAUDET Pargues Vieille Vignes, Chablis

HIRSCH VINEYARDS Estate Chardonnay, Sonoma Coast Hirsch Chardonnay was envisioned to create a transparent expression of their unique vineyard site, striving to bring the acidity and minerality of the site forward, with fruit and oak playing a secondary role. David Hirsch, enamoured with Barolo, had the crazy idea to plant Nebbiolo. Friend, and Williams Selyem Founding Winemaker Burt Williams, told David he should try Chardonnay instead. Thus the old Chardonnay vineyard was born. Together these tiny plantings comprise the Estate Chardonnay: complex aromatics with a generous mouthfeel and refreshing minerality.
