Wine Spectator Review:
There's a firm edge to the acidity in this sleek white, which heightens the apple, pear, lime and slate flavors, finding balance with requisite flesh in the texture. Best from 2011 through 2019.

Parker Review:
The Schaefer 2008 Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Kabinett smells of fresh apple, mango, pink grapefruit, and heliotrope, offering an effusive contrast with the corresponding Himmelreich. Lush yet light on the palate, this finishes with counterpoint provided by apple pit, citrus zest, the bitter side of the vanilla bean, and the proverbial impression of wet stone. I would not hesitate to hold it for at least a dozen years, though it is already delightful.
