Joh. Jos. Prum "Wehlener Sonnenuhr" Riesling Auslese 2022, 750ml

Sourced from steep, south-facing slopes in the Mosel Valley, where weathered Devonian slate soils contribute to the wine’s mineral tension. The grapes are 100% Riesling, harvested by hand and fermented as whole clusters. Fermentation is carried out in stainless steel using ambient yeast, with no malolactic conversion. The wine is aged in stainless steel tanks for several months without oak contact.

Tasting Note:

This is crammed with ripe peach, plus more delicate notes of pineapple and mangosteen. It’s a minor miracle that this kind of concentration can be packed into such a sleek, medium-bodied palate. What an amazing mouthfeel this has thanks to the seamless integration of slatey acidity and ripeness. Very long finish with spot-on balance.

Residual sugar approximately 110-120g/l
