Weingut Joh. Jos. Prüm (J.J. Prüm), nestled in the village of Wehlen on the Middle-Mosel, produces truly great German wine with extraordinary longevity. The wines shine with a terrific sense of breeding and place, elegant in their solidity, sophistication and harmony.
Graacher faces south-west, with deeper soils than iconic Wehlenener Sonnenuhr. Often described as younger brother of the latter, here we have long afternoon sun exposure making for a certain flamboyance in youth, tempered by mineral tension.
Bernkasteler Badstube lies to the south-east of the Prüm house, facing back across the river towards BernkastelKues. The slopes here are marginally less steep than other parts of the estate (although steepness is all relative here!) The vines are afforded longer exposure to the afternoon sun. The wines, consequently have a tendency to be a little more flamboyant in youth, albeit with a marked mineral tension.
"Lime cordial and lemon zest on the nose, grippingly bright, the most expressive of the three Kabinetts by far. This has a more westerly aspect, giving more afternoon sun exposure. The palate has a deft ripeness, just-so white peach and apricot, with a wet-stone minerality and a gently insistent weight on the finish.

German Wine
Germany produces some of the world’s very finest white wines, presenting natural, grapey richness complemented by racy acidity. A really fine example sets off a roller coaster of emotion akin to a skilfully played piece of music.
