Raimund Prüm Essence Riesling has a beautiful pale gold colour with fresh fruit flavours which are perfectly balanced by a racy acidity and a lot of mineral character. A very aromatic riesling with scents of apricot, green apple and white peach. 

About the Producer

The Prüm name has been synonymous with quality wine production in the middle Mosel where the family has been cultivating vineyards since 1156.

The vineyard’s namesake, Sebastian Alois Prüm (1794-1871), owned 17 hectares in the mid 19th century, the largest privately-owned wine estate on the Mosel at the time. His great grandson Raimund (1950 - present), inherited in 1971 and in 2017, passed the estate to his daughter Saskia, a qualified winemaker in the summer of 2017.

Saskia now owns the sonnenuhr (sundial), constructed by her ancestors in 1842, which gives the name to the world famous Wehlener Sonnenuhr vineyard.

Vineyard and Winery

The grapes are hand harvested in mid-October and undergo a gentle crush. The juice of the grapes are fermented with cultured yeasts for several weeks in stainless steel tanks. After certain time of ageing in the tanks it will then be bottled under Stelvin closure to preserve its fresh, youthful and yumm character.
