Somm Note
Winemaker Notes
Floral, apricot and mineral notes burst from the glass, and the wine is silky and impeccably balanced. Very concentrated, yet lightweight and elegant, with a fresh aftertaste. This wine has a remarkable amount of botrytis/noble rot. Very complex and well-structured wine. Very good interplay between floral flavors, mineral acidity and citrus aromas. Great ageing potential – will be enjoyable for many decades.
Serve this refreshing wine slightly chilled! As apéritif, but also with many kinds of food: Experience not only the matching with seafood and poultry, but also with red meat. Wonderful partner also for rich dishes like foie gras. Can be served as dessert or together with only moderately sweetened desserts like apple or apricot tartes.

Wine Spectator
High-toned floral, citrus and red berry aromas introduce this delicate Riesling, which is marked by finesse and a gossamer frame, unveiling its citrus and peach flavors in a fleeting manner. Fine length. Drink now through 2035.

Wine & Spirits
Prüm's 2007s are exceptionally pure and filigreed, and this is no exception. It's intense without being weighty, its ripe fruit showing energy and tension. As with the Spätlese, this feels more open in its youth than the Sonnenuhr Auslese does, showing a little bit more body, if not quite the complexity or length.
