Med lemon. Honey and tropical fruit on the nose. On the palate pronounced passion fruit and melon, medium acid, low alcohol full body, almonds on the long finish. Good but young.

At this stage, sweetness overwhelms the palate. Very rich and with great potential. Honey and bergamot predominate, but this is really infanticide at this stage. As pleasurable as it is, this really is meant for a long slumber to mellow and integrate. Score: 92 but likely higher in a decade. Relative to expectations: + ?

JJ Prum - 2018 range tasting: Passionfruit, coconut, yellow florals, peach and pear as well. The wine flows beautifully across the palate with the interplay of the sweetness and structural acidity lending it amazing early balance. Sweet and spicy profile, real promise for the future here.

Krotida Wine Gang Tasting, Weingut JJ Prum Horizontal tasting 2018 (Oinoscent): The wine shows high intensity and complexity in the nose, ripe tropical fruit, citrus, stone fruit, a nice green leaf freshness, utterly balanced, ripe green apple, smooth, elegant and powerful. In the palate the wine shows power with a strong presence of herbs and especially fresh tea leaves and sage (which caught me off guard), lemon, lime, citrus fruit, apple and pear, high enough acidity to balance the sweetness, medium body and long finish. Outstanding quality. I have to buy cases of this

Not as enjoyable as the Prum 2018 Wehlen Spatlese drunk alongside it
Couldn’t take a proper note
Quite rich (too rich)
