The famous wine estate Joh. Jos. Prüm was founded in 1911 in Wehlen, on the Mosel. It is one of the most unique white wine producers in Germany.
After a chilly January, a mild February and March triggered the vegetation to start early in 2017. In late April to early May, then, a cold period with frosty nights interrupted the speedy start of the season and caused damages in some vineyards. Temperatures jumped up in the second half of May, and with a few interruptions, the hot, dry weather lasted until mid July. Then followed a rather humid period until September, with tem-peratures below average. A golden October allowed the grapes to be harvested early, at fortunate weather conditions.
Graacher Himmelreich (“Kingdom of heaven in the village of Grach) faced more westwards, little less steep and deeper soils than Wehlener Sonnenuhr, weather-beaten grey slate soil with good water reservoirs
Grapes picked by hand, predominantly single pale, fermentation in stainless steel tanks with wild yeast.
