Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

The 2022 Graacher Himmelreich Auslese is clear, fresh and flinty on the fresh and rocky, lemon-scented nose that reveals notes of crushed slate rocks. Savory and lush on the palate, this is a light, precise, fresh and crystalline, finely grippy and persistently saline Auslese with remarkable precision, crunchy minerality and a salivating, intense finish. 8% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine from AP 26 23 in January 2025.

Winemaking

Description

Joh. Jos. Prüm Graacher Himmelreich Auslese is a wine that represents excellence in Riesling winemaking. This wine is an outstanding example of the winemaking tradition of the Mosel region of Germany. Made exclusively from Riesling grapes, this Auslese reflects the dedication of Weingut Joh. Jos. Prüm's dedication to precision and finesse.

Winemaking

The Riesling grape, grown on the region's blue-grey shale soils, benefits from a comparatively cool climate that allows for a long ripening season. This results in distinctive aromatic complexity and fresh acidity. Vinification is carried out with a focus on preserving the authenticity of the terroir and grape variety. Spontaneous fermentation and careful handling in the cellar are key aspects in the creation of this wine.

Taste

Joh. Jos. Prüm Graacher Himmelreich Auslese is a wine that dazzles with its dynamism and expressiveness. On the nose, it presents an exotic and spicy bouquet, with notes of sweet oranges, citrus fruits, and a touch of minerals. On the palate, it reveals itself as a particularly drinkable Auslese. The well-integrated sweetness, reminiscent of flower nectar and ripe mango, is balanced by a vibrant acidity that brings freshness and length to the palate. This balance between sweetness and acidity is a hallmark of the wine, providing a complex and nuanced taste experience. Despite its current accessibility, Joh. Jos. Prüm Graacher Himmelreich Auslese has significant ageing potential, with expectations to evolve and further develop its complexity and depth over decades.
