Mosel Spatlese 'Graacher Himmelreich' 2010 (750 ml.) - J.J. Prum
Riesling Spatlese 'Graacher Himmelreich' by Prum is a sweet white wine. Extroverted, lively and rich in fruit, it comes from the Graacher Himmelreich vineyard from vines over 40 years old. The Spatlese type corresponds to a late harvest, with a high degree of ripeness of the grapes, due to the Botrytis Cinerea. In the cellar the intervention is minimal: vinification and aging in steel. Pleasant citrus spectrum and hints of sweet notes and, subsequently, intense saline nuances. On the palate it is sweet, elegant, enveloping and fresh. Even slight spicy hints are perceptible. A Riesling characterized by a beautiful aromatic texture and with a sensational minerality, long and complex finish.
