S.A. Prüm
Graacher Domprobst Riesling GG
Mosel, Germany
I love Mosel Riesling with the right food. It is always paired with our Spicy Asian Lettuce Wraps. 👌 pairing.
Visited this producer and P.A Prüm in 2015. Both rock solid producers.
The nose reveals; peach, apricot, white peach, dried pineapple, understated white citrus blend, marmalade, orange, tangerine, tropical melon, light petroleum notes, hints of fruit brandy, honey/honeycomb, notes of sweet white spice, caramel, nuts with skin, beautiful, yet subtle minerals, slate, spring flowers, yellow floral & fruit blossoms.
The palate is; thick, rich, lush & nice viscosity. It’s a good first peak at the 2009. Love the GG’s and don’t drink them nearly enough. It’s a gorgeous mouthfeel and similar wire to wire. Ripe, juicy; peach, apricot, white peach, dried pineapple, understated white citrus blend, marmalade, orange, tangerine, & tropical melon. Mild petroleum notes, hints of fruit brandy, honey/honeycomb, notes of sweet white spice, caramel, nuts with skin, beautiful, yet subtle powdery minerals, slate, spring flowers, yellow floral & fruit blossoms. Huge round, perfect acidity. The long; round, voluptuous, elegant, lush finish is really coming into its own & sustains for minutes in perfect balance & harmony.
Photos of; S.A. Prüm, Saskia Prüm, lead Winemaker, one of their Mosel vineyards (how would you like to harvest at that pitch on slippery blue slate when it rains...rain happens quite a bit during harvest) and their barrel room.
