Suckling over Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Auslese 2024
In spite of the generous ripeness, the dominant aromas and flavors are Amalfi lemons, yellow grapefruit and pomelo with some fresh herbal notes. Very bright and racy, the finish much drier than you might expect for this frankly sweet category. Long, energetic, herbal finish with fascinating grapefruit bitterness and salty minerality. Drinkable now, but best from 2027.

Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Auslese 2024
The Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Auslese 2024 from Joh. Jos. Prüm shines a radiant pale gold with brilliant reflections and fascinates with an intense, ultra-fine bouquet. On the nose, enchanting aromas of ripe white peach, juicy apricot, candied lemon, and honeydew melon unfold, accompanied by floral notes, delicate herbal spice, and the signature smoky-saline slate minerality of the Graach terroir. On the palate, the Auslese presents a floating lightness and a masterful balance between ripe fruit sweetness and precise, vibrant acidity that ensures extraordinary freshness. The fruit is crystal-clear and complex, offering nuances of exotic pineapple, ripe mirabelle plum, and a touch of orange blossom, while fine minerality provides added depth and structure. The finish is long, vibrant, and carried by saline freshness, making the wine feel incredibly elegant despite its concentration. A grand, classic Mosel Auslese Riesling with immense aging potential that enchants in its youth and will gain finesse and complexity over decades.
