About this Item
The Graacher Himmelreich vineyard is one of the prized vineyard sites owned by Joh. Jos. Prüm. It is situated on steep slopes with blue slate soils, which impart a distinctive minerality and complexity to the Riesling grapes grown there. Kabinett is a classification in German winemaking that indicates a wine made from fully ripened grapes with natural sweetness and lower alcohol content.

Critics Ratings
‘Amazingly youthful on the nose. Piercing acidity but lovely bright fruit too. And so delicate! Featherlight and fresh as a mountain stream. Dry finish. Grainy texture.’ - Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com, 17.5/20 (March 2019)
‘Elegant and stylish, revealing floral, lime, slate and saline notes allied to a gossamer frame. There's an intensity that dissipates slowly, with a mouthwatering aftertaste. Drink now through 2022.’ - Bruce Sanderson, Wine Spectator, 91/100
