Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2021 Graacher Himmelreich Kabinett is clear, bright and deep on the finely flinty, well-concentrated and aromatic nose with its delicate slate perfume. Lush and fresh on the palate, with savory acidity and mineral grip as well as lovely citrus flavors toward the finish, this is a light, saline and crystalline, stimulating and grippy Kabinett with an intense, almost dry and mouth-watering finish. A classic. 8% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine in May 2023.

Winemaking
Description
Joh. Joh. Jos. Prüm Graacher Himmelreich Kabinett is a white wine of exceptional quality from the prestigious Mosel wine region in Germany. This wine is a single varietal, made exclusively from Riesling grapes, a variety characterised by its ability to uniquely reflect the qualities of the terroir.
Winemaking
The winemaking of this wine follows a meticulous and traditional process. The grapes are harvested by hand, carefully selecting the best clusters. Fermentation is carried out in stainless steel tanks, using natural yeasts. This method preserves the purity and freshness of the fruit, while enhancing the mineral characteristics of the wine. Ageing in steel tanks also helps to maintain the clarity and liveliness of the wine.
Taste
Joh. Joh. Jos. Prüm Graacher Himmelreich Kabinett stands out for its balance between sweetness and acidity, a hallmark of high-quality Rieslings. The nose offers aromas of green apple, mandarin, lime and subtle hints of ginger and white currant. On the palate, crystalline acidity and electrifying minerality combine with a surprising density on the palate. The sweetness of the wine is delicate and well integrated, reminiscent of a quinine-infused tonic water, adding a fascinating complexity.
This wine is ideal to accompany a wide range of dishes, from light appetizers to more elaborate Asian or European cuisine. Its freshness and vivacity make it an exceptionally versatile wine, appreciated by connoisseurs and amateurs alike.
