Joh. Jos. Prum, Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Spätlese
Richly textured with notes of caramel, honey, and crisp green apple, this Spätlese balances full-bodied fruit with the precise slate-driven minerality that defines the Mosel. Perfect with Asian cuisine or enjoyed on its own, it reflects the character of JJ Prüm’s most renowned site—the Wehlener Sonnenuhr. With its extreme 70% slopes, south-southwest exposure, and deep weathered grey slate soils, this vineyard produces Rieslings of exceptional depth and longevity. Hand-harvested grapes ferment spontaneously in stainless steel, yielding a wine that evolves beautifully over time.
