2012 Joh Jos Prum, Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Spatlese, Mosel 1x750ml

Vinous 93

We finished with the 2012 Graacher Himmelreich Spatlese from Joh. Jos. Prum. This is complex and engaging on the nose with scents of yellow plum, nectarine, linseed oil and orange pith, all beautifully defined. The palate was on the sweeter side of the Spatlese spectrum, which is exactly what I wanted. Slightly viscous on the entry, this is succinctly balanced with just enough acidic bite, poised and spicy towards the lingering finish. It seems to be in a perfect place after a decade, though it will give another decade s drinking pleasure. [Neal Martin, 05/08/2022]
