Joh. Jos. Prum
The Prum family have lived in or near the village of Wehlen in Mosel since 1156. The estate was founded in 1911 by Sebastian and has since strived and succeeded to produce German Riesling of the highest quality. The harvest is done very late; this bold trait benefits the wine which has surprising longevity.

Crushed stone, sage, green tea, as well as black tea smokiness envelop the fresh apple, cherry and lime aromas of a Prum 2011 Bernkasteler Badstube Riesling Kabinett, but fruit comes to the fore on an infectiously juicy, buoyant, and satin-textured palate, with smoky, herbal, alkaline and crushed stone elements setting-up a positively shimmering sense of dynamic interactivity that persists into a bracing and succulently-sustained finish. The residual sugar here is impeccably-integrated, as was the case with the corresponding generic Kabinett (and in fact, at just over 30 grams, it’s analytically only a tad higher), and even at 9.5% alcohol this positively dances across your tongue. Look to be charmed for at least the better part of two decades by this excellent value.HK$4,995.00
