Joh. Jos. Prum, Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Auslese Gold Capsule (JJ20)

This “limited edition” Riesling shows itself silky, harmonious and refined, with apricot, apple, lime and mineral aromas and flavours on a light-weight frame. Balanced, its hidden structure is evident in the tanginess on the finish and lingering aftertaste of baked apple.

Joh. Jos. Prum, Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Auslese Gold Capsule (JJ20) 2012	95 Wine Enthusiast “Saffron and exotic spice dust aromas of honey and apples on this deeply layered, complex wine. The palate is sweet with peach nectar and preserves, yet balanced with streaks of acidity and crushed minerals. Silken on the tongue, it lingers endlessly with a kiss of honeysuckle. Wonderful now, but sure to develop it’s honeyed, mineral complexity from 2020 on.”	Bottle Image Label Image Shelf Talker Tech Sheet
Joh. Jos. Prum, Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Auslese Gold Capsule (JJ20) 2017	96 Wine Enthusiast Subtle hints of white linen and honey introduce this intensely extracted, deeply penetrating auslese. Luscious tangerine, pineapple and stone-fruit flavors are forward and fruity but nuanced by layers of smoky minerals and spine-tingling acidity. It’s a bold little wine that’s stunning already but will improve for decades ahead.	Bottle Image Label Image Shelf Talker Tech Sheet
