About 2007 Prum, Joh Jos Riesling Spatlese Wehlener Sonnenuhr
About the Winery Prum, Joh Jos
For centuries the Prüm family has called the village of Wehlen home. Johann Josef Prüm (1873 - 1944) founded the Joh.Jos. Prüm estate in 1911, then acquired the vineyards from one of his brothers and paved the way for a successful development of this estate in the decades to come. After World War I, in 1920, he brought his son Sebastian (born 1902) into the estate. Supported by his wife Katharina Erz, the daughter of an estate owner in Bernkastel, Sebastian Prüm-Erz set out to produce the very highest quality Riesling wines, and these later achieved phenomenal prices at the annual Trier auctions.
The 55 acre estate consists of about 90% ungrafted, old vines. Holdings are in the best parts of the top Middle-Mosel sites: Wehlener Sonnenuhr, Graacher Himmelreich, Zeltinger Sonnenuhr, Bernkasteler Lay and Bernkasteler Badstube. Plantings of the estate are 100 % Riesling and on steeply sloping Devon schist soil.
Average annual production is about 15,000 cases. The harvest at J.J. Prüm is always extremely late. For example in 2007, the harvest was not finished before December. This allows the Riesling grapes in the cool Middle Mosel climate to be picked at ideal ripening conditions, the basis to produce wines of superb quality. Hence, the risk involved with such a late harvest is accepted.
The J.J. Prüm Estate is a member of the VDP Mosel-Saar-Ruwer.
