Parker about Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Kabinett 2023
The 2023 Graacher Himmelreich Kabinett is pure, intense and elegant on the complex and substantial nose with stony and lemony notes. This Riesling is rich and mouth-filling and provided with ripe and sustainable mineral acidity and intense fruit. This is an expressive and terroir-driven Riesling with a seriously mineral expression. 9% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine in January 2025.

Suckling over Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Kabinett 2023
This Mosel riesling cabinet is a miniature masterpiece of delicacy. I love the aromas of wildflowers and herbs that are married to a wealth of mineral nuances on the light- to medium-bodied palate. Although a hint of sweetness is perceptible, this has quite a firm core, yet is very delicate at the long, pristine finish. Drink or hold.

Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Kabinett 2023

The Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Kabinett 2023 from Joh. Jos. Prüm captivates with a youthful, light golden color and silvery reflections. The unmistakable terroir of the Himmelreich unfolds on the nose, with a delicate interplay of juicy yellow fruit, ripe pineapple, white peach, and green pear, accompanied by subtle herbal spice and the characteristic, smoky-mineral slate note. On the palate, the wine reveals a perfect balance between a delicate residual sweetness and precise, stimulating acidity, lending it an almost weightless elegance. The fruit is juicy and clear, carried by a prancing lightness, while nuances of citrus fruits, honeydew melon, and a subtle salty minerality unfold. The long, vibrant finish leaves an elegant freshness and makes the wine a classic, timeless Kabinett Riesling, already delightful in its youth but will gain even more complexity with age.
