2021 Joh Jos Prüm Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Auslese

The 2021 Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Auslese from Joh Jos Prüm is a classic example of Mosel Auslese. Sourced from the prestigious Wehlener Sonnenuhr vineyard, known for its steep slopes and blue slate soils, this wine showcases the elegance and complexity typical of Prüm's style. The Auslese designation indicates a late harvest of very ripe, selected grapes, resulting in a sweet wine with concentrated flavors and excellent aging potential.
