Wine Description:
Dr. Katharina Prüm has fully embraced her role in the family's winemaking business, tending to the 22-hectare estate in prime Middle Mosel locations. The Prüm family's meticulous care remains focused on their vineyards, considered the sole source of exceptional wines. Their legendary cellar is off-limits to outsiders, preserving the mystique of their winemaking. Manfred and Katharina believe the cellar's role is to capture the vineyard's unique quality authentically in the bottle. J. J. Prüm crafts traditionally fruity wines with moderate natural residual sweetness, balanced by high acidity, race, and minerality. While youthful inaccessibility is a trade-off for aging potential, mature vintages reveal these wines' greatness, transcending unique aromas to achieve world-class status.

Wine Expert Note:

Joh. Jos. Prüm Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Spätlese is a highly regarded German Riesling produced by the renowned winery Joh. Jos. Prüm. The Graacher Himmelreich vineyard, located in the Mosel region, is known for producing exceptional Riesling wines. This particular wine, being a Spätlese, indicates that the grapes were harvested later in the season, resulting in a slightly higher level of ripeness and sweetness compared to a Kabinett or a Trocken wine. Spätlese wines often exhibit a perfect balance between sweetness and acidity. On the nose, this Riesling Spätlese offers enticing aromas of ripe peach, apricot, and citrus fruits, accompanied by floral notes of honeysuckle and jasmine. The palate is rich and luscious, with a vibrant acidity that provides a refreshing counterpoint to the sweetness. Flavors of tropical fruits, such as pineapple and mango, mingle with hints of honey and a mineral undertone, adding complexity to the wine. The Joh. Jos. Prüm Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Spätlese is a wine that can be enjoyed now, but it also has excellent aging potential. With time, the flavors will further develop, and the wine will gain even more complexity and depth.
