2019 Riesling, Auslese, Graacher Himmelreich, Goldkapsel, Joh. Jos. Prüm, Mosel, Germany

Description

Slightly raw green-leaf aromas. Lots of acidity and lively, slightly chewy fruit. Some hint of passion- and kiwi fruit but definitely subtle enough. Fresh and smoky notes. Clean and relatively approachable, but still unformed.

Critics reviews

Stephan Reinhardt 96+/100
The 2019 Graacher Himmelreich Auslese (Gold Capsule) offers a concentrated and spicy bouquet with notes of tea and lemon chutney. Round and refined on the palate, this is a highly elegant and salty-piquant Auslese with delicate grip and very fine concentration. It tastes concentrated but not that sweet and enormously piquant and salty. Tasted at the domain in September 2020. Drink 2030 - 2070 Stephan Reinhardt, Wine Advocate (October 2020)

About this wine

Riesling

Riesling's twin peaks are its intense perfume and its piercing crisp acidity which it manages to retain even at high ripeness levels.

Weingut Joh Jos Prum

Prüm is one of the finest estates in the Mosel. Founded by Johann Josef Prüm in 1911, the winery rapidly built a reputation for its racy, pure expressions of Riesling, grown on the extraordinarily steep, slate slopes in the heart of the Mosel. Today, the estate is run by Dr Katharina Prüm who watches over 13.5 hectares of vines – including some rare ungrafted vines.
