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 very mild winter, bud break took place in the second half of April, slightly earlier than normal. Both May and June brought wild fluctuations in temperature – from plenty of rain to a hot summer. The weather turned significantly cooler in September, which was very helpful in preventing the grapes from rot. October was also cool, but rather dry, which created perfect conditions for harvest. They started picking in early October and finished on November 4th.
