Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, February 2006

Aromas of Granny Smith apple, cinnamon, lime, honeydew melon, and vanilla pour from a glass of the Prum 2004 Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Spatlese A.P. #23. Saturating the palate with juicy spiced apple, melon, and lime fruit while remaining delicate to the touch, this Riesling finishes with persistent fruit augmented by distinctive wet stone, salt, green tea, fresh lemon, and a pleasantly pungent note akin to peppermint. A light hint of primary yeastiness, mingled with CO2, had considerably diminished between the time when I first tasted this wine in August and then re-tasted it in November, and its personality will continue to grow short term, as well as inviting a dozen and more years of cellaring.

A tad reduced in aroma, this young white has plenty of intensity, offering lime, peach and slate flavors matched to a silky texture. It's awkward today, needing time to integrate. Best from 2008 through 2020. 1,500 cases made. (BS)
