J J Prum Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Auslese Goldkapsel 2013
HK$715.00 inc. tax
Type: Sweet White Wine
Vintage: 2013
Grapes: 100% Riesling
Origin: Mosel-Saar-Ruwer, Mosel, Germany
Winery: J.J. Prüm
Vineyards: Just upstream from the Wehlener Sonnenuhr is the Graacher Himmelreich. With deeper, richer soils, this site is a little less steep and its south-west exposure ensures the wines from this site always have a racy and juicy acid background that really make the wines sing. The gold capsule signifies a wine of even greater quality.
The Mosel River Valley is probably the most famous and arguably the most admired wine region of Germany. In its wider sense, it includes the adjacent Saar and Rüwer (hence Mosel-Saar-Rüwer), both tributaries of the Mosel River, however it is the middle Mosel (mittelmosel), in particular between and including the towns of Bernkastel-Kues and Erden that the most brilliant wines tend to be produced. Berkastel, Grach, Wehlen, and Zeltingen are some of the most famous wine towns here. All of the vineyards of J.J. Prüm are located within this prestigious strip. The Prüm family history in the Mosel dates back as early as 1156! However Johann Josef Prüm (1873 - 1944), founded the J.J. Prüm estate in 1911. Dr Manfred Prüm has led the estate since 1969. Now his daughter Katharina is taking over the mantle. The 13.5 hectare estate includes some 70% of ungrafted vines (because the phylloxera louse cannot survive in these slate soils.)
Tasting notes: Delicate, shimmering gold, with green lights, this presents a combination of honeyed opulence and citric freshness on the nose, grapefruit and lychee, green apple and crushed slate minerals - so refined. The palate, reflects the aromatics presented on the nose, adding floral notes.
Pairing: The wine perfectly matches with every kind of dessert.
Alcohol Content: 7.5%
