J. J. Prüm’s 2017 Graacher Himmelreich Spätlese is a powerful Riesling that should blossom with more time in bottle.
A little muted on the nose at the moment, but the palate is stunningly delicate, and taut: a piquant display of intensely ripe, fleshy fruit, salinity and high acidity that keeps it all in balance.
This is a stunning wine in the making.

A great wine in the making but the residual sugar still very pronounced and needs time for the pit fruit to harmonize with the smoke, stone and herbal elements
