J.J. Prum Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Spatlese 2018

Alcohol: 9%

Grape(s): Riesling

Localization: Mosel, Germany

Tasting notes: Classic, young Prum leesiness. Flavors are spicy with depth and purity. 

96 points James Suckling: A deep and complex Spatlese with a ton of blossom aromas, but also great white fruit and a touch of yellow peach and fresh pineapple. Very long, bright and delicate on the medium-bodied palate. Drink or hold

The Domain: For centuries the Prüm family has called the village of Wehlen home. The 33.5 acre estate consists of nearly 70% ungrafted vines. Holdings are in the best parts of the top Middle-Mosel sites: Wehlener Sonnenuhr, Zeltinger Sonnenuhr, Graacher Himmelreich, Graacher Domprobst, Bernkasteler Lay, Bernkasteler Badstube, and Bernkasteler Bratenhöfchen. Average annual production is 13,000 cases. The harvest at J.J. Prüm is always extremely late, and the wines are very long-lived.
