  During a GE/AUT tasting. An absolute gem, combining richness and freshness. Intense aromas with lemon and stone fruit, bright acidity. Grand 96+.

  - GE/AUT tasting
  - We had this Auslese after three Spätlese wines from J.J. Prüm.
  - Gracher Himmelreich is always a little lighter but no less complex than the wines from Wehlener Sonnenuhr.
  - Greatly made, lots of stony slate flavours, lemon, stone fruit, quince and the sweetness is perfectly balanced with freshness and acidity.
  - Great potential for the future.
  - 95p

  Colore giallo paglierino con lievi riflessi verdolini. Al naso è inizialmente chiuso, con la tipica nota riduttiva, a indicarne la giovinezza, per poi aprirsi verso i caratteristici sentori di idrocarburi, avvolti in una complessa parte fruttata, tra intense note di scorza di agrumi (limone e cedro) e frutta tropicale. In bocca è di corpo leggero, morbido e avvolgente; in apertura è dolce, mellifluo, ma in mezzo al palato è bilanciato da una grande acidità e da una fresca e persistente nota minerale. Da dimenticare in cantina e riparlarne tra una decina di anni.

  Pale color; some petrol in the nose but mostly candied fruit; great ripeness with medium body and very good acidity; very refreshing and yet considerably sweet. Long. Delightful crowd pleasing wine for end of meal.

  Minerals, slate, almond, lemon-lime and floral notes. There’s also some spice. Really great. Already so much complexity, I can only imagine what age will bring.
