Tasting Notes
A silky, creamy wine of almost painful intensity: powerful and elegant at once, with concentrated peach, apricot and tropical fruit, vibrant ripe lemony acidity and smooth, vanishingly fine dark slaty mineral flavours lasting for minutes, joined by a juicy salty note that leaves you salivating.
The Producer
The Prüm name has been synonymous with quality wine production in the middle Mosel where the family has been cultivating vineyards since 1156.
The vineyard’s namesake, Sebastian Alois Prüm (1794-1871), owned 17 hectares in the mid 19th century, the largest privately-owned wine estate on the Mosel at the time. His great grandson Raimund (1950 – present), inherited in 1971 and in 2017, passed the estate to his daughter Saskia, a qualified winemaker in the summer of 2017.
Saskia now owns the sonnenuhr (sundial), constructed by her ancestors in 1842, which gives the name to the world famous Wehlener Sonnenuhr vineyard.
