Joh. Jos. Prum Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Spatlese Mosel 2020

Katarina Prms 2020 Graacher Himmelreich is a beautifully filigreed and absolutely classically-styled bottle of Sptlese. The wine is built for the long haul in this vintage, with a great girdle of acidity and mineral undertow that promises a very, very long life in the bottle. The bouquet is still quite youthful, offering up scents of apple, pear, salty slate minerality, bee pollen, spring flowers, lilacs and violets. On the palate, the wine is pure, medium-full and beautifully filigreed, with a lovely core, superb transparency and bounce, bright acids and a very, very long and promising finish. This is more refined and lighter on its feet than the Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Sptlese, but equally youthful and will deserve some extended cellaring. It will be pure magic once it is truly ready to drink!

Critical Acclaim

95 James Suckling

The concentrated and almost enveloping peach and apricot fruit, together with the racy acidity and the enormous herbal and mineral freshness, make this a dazzling Spatlese. Very pure finish, with a delicate note of floral honey, but only a hint of sweetness. Drink or hold.
