When people talk about benchmark Mosel Riesling, Joh. Jos. Prm is the baseline. Under Dr Katharina Prm, the house style remains fiercely guarded, prioritizing long-term cellar potential and unforced vineyard character. While the neighboring Wehlener Sonnenuhr usually gets the headlines for its flamboyant personality, the weathered grey slate of Graacher Himmelreich consistently delivers a more immediate, mineral-driven style with incredible water-retention soils that keep the vines tracking smoothly.

The 2024 growing season was a classic, cooler vintage that played right into Prms hands. Harvest kicked off at the start of October, yielding pristine, light-footed fruit perfectly suited to the traditional Kabinett style. Fermented naturally with indigenous yeasts in stainless steel, this release captures a clean, effortless purity that trades heavy power for sheer charm and persistence.

Expect a touch of that classic, smoky sulfur reduction when you first crack the screwcap, which quickly parts to reveal a fine aromatic mix of crunchy white peach, nashi pear, and wild garden herbs. The palate is feather-light and filigreed, balancing its delicate grape sweetness with a long line of driving, crisp citrus and a crunchy, slatey mineral texture.

A textbook, low-alcohol masterpiece that is delightfully accessible now but will evolve effortlessly for decades.
