J.J. PRUM GRAACHER HIMMERLREICH RIESLING SPATLESE - 2003


The Prüm family has been making wine for over two centuries and is one of the most celebrated and respected producers in Germany. Prüm wines are known to age extremely well so they are great whites to cellar.

TASTING NOTES:

Light, yet rich and full of character with refreshing sweet stone, mineral, and floral notes. There is considerable acidity and a tangy finish that will make your mouth pucker.

SCORE & RECOMMENDATION:

90 PTS
This is a pretty serious German Riesling that retails for around $25 - $30. It definitely delivers and probably will get even better with some time in the bottle. Hard to recommend for everyone at this price, but clearly if you know your German Rieslings, you are more than familiar already with the outstanding wines from Prüm.
