JJ Prum Bernkasteler Badstube Riesling Spatlese 2018

The vineyards of Bernkasteler Badstube sit to the south of Graacher Himmelreich, where the slopes are on a marginally shallower gradient, and the soils are deeper than those of Graacher, Wehlener or Zeltinger. The more westerly orientation allows the vines a longer exposure to the afternoon sun, but less light in the morning. The result is a typically lighter, highly approachable wine with wonderful delicacy and florals, red fruit notes and plenty of vibrant freshness on the finish. Overall, the wines are usually open when young, but just as delicious over time, when they often give the impression of being drier.
