2014 Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Auslese Goldkapsel Joh. Jos. Prüm, Mosel-Saar-Ruwer

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate - 2014 Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Auslese Goldkapsel, Joh. Jos. Prüm

The gold-capsuled 2014 Riesling Graacher Himmelreich Auslese GK (AP #18) represents a botrytis selection and offers highly delicate fruit and flinty-slate aromas, where tropical fruit aromas mingle with wet stone flavors. The attack on the palate is racy and piquant; the wine is complex and very pure, highly elegant and finesse-full, yet intense and concentrated, with ripe pineapple flavors and a pure, salty, very mineral finish. This is highly delicate Riesling with a complex terroir expression. - Stephan Reinhardt, März 2016

Mosel Fine Wines - 2014 Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Auslese Goldkapsel, Joh. Jos. Prüm

Harvested at just over 100° Oechsle, this gorgeous wine delivers a superb and elegant nose of almond, flowers and passion fruit. It is still quite primary and backward on the palate, with a creamy and slightly honeyed texture balanced out by a most zesty acidity. The finish, while still on the tart side, is simply stunningly well balance and loaded with mouth-watering almond-infused aromatics. This is a gorgeously playful and zesty Auslese GK in the making! 2024-2044. - Okt. 2015
