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.
Harvest started on 18th September and finished on 11th October, which is an early record. Since temperatures stayed warm even in October, and ripening continued fast, we made sure to finish the harvest as fast as possible. We harvested all Prädikate from Kabinett to Beerenauslese, with focus on the Kabinett, Spätlese and Auslese levels. Some beautiful botrytis was selected to produce a very nice range of Goldcapsule, long gold capsule and Beerenauslese. Overall, the wines of vintage 2023 are classic in style, very pure and right, possess a refreshing acidity and a fine ripeness.
Wehlener Sonnenuhr („Sonnenuhr“ literally means sundial) most famous and best vineyard of JJ Prüm; deep, weather-beaten grey slate soil, extreme steepness of 70%, south-southwest exposure; wines can be aged for years to express their fine minerality and depth
grapes are hand-picked, single pole trellis, fermentation in stainless steel with wild yeast
