Joh. Jos. Prüm Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Spätlese 2022
Joh. Jos. Prüm is a true master of German wine, and the steep, slate-covered slopes of the Graacher Himmelreich vineyard provide the perfect canvas for their craft. For this 'Spätlese' expression, the grapes are left on the vine later into the autumn season. This extra hang-time allows the fruit to develop incredible concentration, ripeness, and natural sweetness before they are carefully hand-harvested. The 2022 vintage is wonderfully generous and expressive. To the nose you are met with intense aromas of ripe peach, baked apple, and a touch of golden honey. On the palate, it is remarkably luscious and deeply flavoured, yet it never feels heavy or cloying. The secret lies in that signature Mosel Riesling acidity - a bright, racing freshness that cuts straight through the richness and leaves the finish feeling incredibly vibrant and clean. This style of wine is an absolute revelation when paired with food. The natural sweetness makes it the ultimate companion for spicy Sichuan dishes, rich pork belly, or a bold blue cheese. Like all great Prüm wines, it is already showing brilliantly, but it possesses the legendary structure to age gracefully in the cellar for decades if you have the patience. [#intro]Dive into lush stone fruit, bright citrus, and honeyed richness with this world-class Mosel Spätlese...[/intro]
