Uhlen is the granddaddy site of the lower Mosel and is perhaps the most famous (only Röttgen comes close in renown). The 'R' is made from a special sub-section called Roth Lay with a high percentage of red sandstone along with the ever-present weathered, hard slate. The 'R' is also a subtle tribute to Matthias' father, Reinhard. Only 750 bottles of Uhlen R were producer and it comes from 70-year old ungrafted vines. This is the best wine of the lineup this vintage with great acidity, unreal minerality and a broad, palate-coating texture. I've tasted this wine twice and have been floored both times; Matthias Knebel has arrived! JFR
