I tasted Wehleneder Sonnenuhr from 1993. Exceptionally good, but currently I pfrefer Frith Haag or Tesch, especially when it comes to price-performance ratio.
I recall 1983 to be an amazing vintage for German rieslings ! Had several rieslings back then including Bernkasteler Doctor ,Dr Thanisch... LOVE THEM !
Joh Jos Prum is my favorite wine producer in the world. It’s extremely hard to come by in Indiana in the United States, but I have a amassed about 100 bottles in my cellar. My favorite thus far is the 2001 WS Auslese. I have had it twice and it’s been remarkable both times. I will continue to pay the prices to get this wine to Indiana. I’m jealous of all of the European wine lovers who can get this much easier. JJ Prum will likely always be my #1 producer and one if my bucket list items is to some day visit the winery. Thanks for sharing this. I hope to see more JJ Prum in the future!
JJ Prüm wines are amazing. If you get a chance to have a tasting at the winery you would need to try and arrange in advance. I had a wonderful tasting there in 2015 with Dr Katarina Prüm that was truly memorable as well as tasting with Oliver Haag at Weingut Fritz Haag. I love the 2001 vintage wines at Prüm.
@@larrydalton2205 That is truly amazing @larrydalton2205. I can only imagine how special it would be to have a tasting on site with Katarina Prum at the vineyard. I contacted the winery a couple of years ago about an auction bottle I purchased and Mihailo at the vineyard was super kind and unbelievably helpful. I can only imagine a tasting there would be top class. I’m afraid I likely don’t have the clout to have an actual tasting there, but I would love to visit and have a glass on-site. You definitely did something right along the way to a tasting with Katarina Prum AND also with Oliver Haag at Fritz Haag . I am truly jealous and also happy for you at the same time. I would love to hear about those tastings sometime if you have ever written about them or if you make content. Thanks for the response. It’s always a pleasure to be able to communicate with other passionate Riesling lovers.
@CurdBros Sorry, I don't produce content. I'm just a German riesling lover. I don't have any clout in the wine world and was surprised to get the tasting as I had contacted the Prüm winery some weeks before our trip and told no appointment was available. However about one day before leaving the USA I got a second email from the estate which said if I could attend on one specific date and time only, could my wife and I attend the tasting. It worked perfectly although I would have adjusted my schedule in any way possible to be there. About two weeks ago I was just able to buy a nice mix of 14 JJP wines (kabinett and spätlese) from the 2018 and 2019 vintage locally in San Antonio at a very good price. Very pleased at that.
Your review triggered my memory that I have a few bottles of 1983 JJ Prum Wehlener Sonnenuhr Auslese stashed away that I bought in the mid '80s for $13/750. Sadly, not gold capsule. Still, can't wait to try one. I like sweet Rieslings with spicy Chinese or Thai food.
We are huge fans of JJ Prum and have been drinking their wines for over 30 years, we have had everything from their Riesling Kabinett’s to Riesling Auslese’s namely the 1983 and 2006 vintages. We actually paired the 2006 with a Mogul brazed Indian curry dish my wife prepared and we were actually surprised how well it went. Thanks for another great video.
Had my first Auslese JJ last summer at a pop up wine bar on Seneca Lake in NY. It was a 2012 Gold Cap. Had it with a free range barbecued chicken. It was a beautiful wine. Being with my love, eating good food, looking over a beautiful lake, drinking a memorable wine.....just a great evening.
For the first 5-8 years of drinking wine, all I knew & drank were the wines of Joh. Jos. Prum. I've been lucky to have a few from the 80's, 90's, and about 10-12 bottles from 2001 over the years. For me, JJ Prum was the foundation of what I understood German wine to be, grace, intensity, clean, & long-lived. Of all the wines I've had over the years, the one I continue to search out & buy whenever I find it is the 2001
JJ Prum is one of my favorite wines. The quality of this wine (Spatlese and Auslese -the ones that I have tried) are much better compared to other vineyards making the same wine in that area. The J.J. Prum Wehlener Sonnenuhr Gold Capsule Riesling Auslese are superb!
The 2001 Prum WS Goldkapsel Auslese is a splendid wine right now, one of the best German rieslings I've tasted and as good as many of the legendary 1971s.
JJ Prum is one of my favourite German producers alongside with Robert Weil. I am Chinese, and I like to pair my Spatlese with mildly spicy Thai or Chinese cuisine, and occasionally with sashimi and seafood sushi too. Thanks for sharing your knowledge in the video. Cheers!
Yes i agree. Asiatic food can well match the riesling and the gewurstraminer in general. I personally found good riesling in my country (czech republic) and my wife likes as well this cepage.
Danke für diese tolle Folge! Interessant zu hören, wie sich solch ein Wein entwickeln kann. Ich habe erst vor kurzem die beiden 2019er Graacher Himmelreich Auslese Goldkapsel und die Wehlener Sonnenuhr Auslese von Prüm getrunken. J.J. Prüm ist mit seinen Auslesen eine Klasse für sich, auch wenn ich Fritz Haag leicht vorziehe, wenn ich die trockenen Rieslinge mit einbeziehe.
My wine mentor, Dennis Dinsmore, shared 2 bottles of Prum at a Thanksgiving meal. He opened a 1976 Prum Graacher Himmerlich Auslese and a 1976 Prum Wehlener Sonnenuhr Spatlese. I vividly remember the experience. To be nearly 30 years of age and still showing fruit and freshness, was something I could not get over. I love old Riesling.
Great review. The wine looked like it could go another 20 years. I was surprised you didn’t score it a little higher based on your comments. Love your channel. Keep up the great content!
Hi Constantin MW, I’m a drinker from Bangkok, Thailand. Although a relatively new followers of your for over a month or so, I found your videos truly amazing with the way you casually go through tastings, background information in a relax, yet informative manner. You simplify rather complicated wine making technique, vineyard history while at the same time providing your own experience. Me and my brothers are huge fans of your channel so please keep up the efforts! We have been fond Bordeaux drinkers but we are relatively new to Riesling and German Riesling are our favourite so far. It would be great if you can share us your opinions on the 1) different style of dry German Riesling from different region 2) unique characteristics of German Riesling in comparison to the Austrian or Alsatian Riesling 3) lastly, your tasting of best value German Trocken (Dry) and other sweetness levels (Auslese, spatlese, or even BA and TBA Riesling. WILL CONTINUE TO FOLLOW YOUR CHANNEL AND KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!!
Every time I watch one of your videos I find something to add to the "must try" list (and the "must earn more money to pay for them" list). I haven't tried any of the Prum wines. I do love Dr Loosen's, so I can only imagine how good JJ is. I did try one very old Riesling. It was from the "Russian Imperial cellar" (whatever that might be) and a very good friend of mine picked it up when she was sort of in the wine business. It was from 1933. I wasn't sure what to expect but I did a braised guinea fowl with dried mushrooms to partner it. (I had a good rioja as a stand in, just in case the wine was undrinkable). The wine was interesting. The cork was very short and I wasn't sure there would be anything much left of the wine, which was very dark. It tasted it's age (quite a lot of tertiaries) but the very strange thing was that there was still some fruit as well as acidity. It was really a glimpse in to a bygone age. And the food pairing worked well.
Thanks for access to these more expensive wines. I would love if you could propose alternatives that offer some comparable characteristics at different price points, so we can work up to a level of appreciation where it makes sense to invest in these world class wines. Great video!
Great idea. Not a fan of Grauburgunder at all, but people love it. Why? No idea. But if, take Ziereisens Jaspis. The only Pinot Gris that counts. Except Alsace, sometimes, rarely, once in a decade 😂
I first stumbled across JJ Prum when I was searching for a nice kabinett Riesling to pair with last year’s Thanksgiving dinner! I fell in love with the Wehlener Sonnen Kabinett bottle and since then bought 3 more of it. I found them for $32 at total wine and now they are $74 at that same store where I bought them!! Any thought on which vintage would be better - 2020 or 2021?
I had a 1983 Mosel auslese very young. After uncorking the room filled with pears. Marvelous. I must have missed the wild boar part. I auditioned a simple Nahe qualitatswein with a client and he fried up some boar burgers. The Nahe was so unique he ordered 2 cases. Believe it or not. I didn't have any of my auslese in my case that day. Damn.
If you want to taste aged Riesling but don't have the money. Querbach has many affordable old ones. And yes Konstantin I do feel honoured, thanks for sharing.
. . . ' House wine ' are two separate words ... And I believe that is a nonsensical statement by Mr. Brown , based on ' w h a t ' exactly ?.. agreed to by Herr Baum in a similarly vapid way .
And, if it was TCA affected would they replace it? About 5%, or more of the old Riesling i have ever had have been corked. Is it consumer resistance or their conservatism that stops them using screw caps?
Cooles Video! Meine JJ Lieblingslage ist das Graacher Himmelreich - empfinde die Weine als ein wenig „schlanker“ und frischer als die Wehlener Sonnenuhr. Aber im Zweifel nehme ich alles von JJ :)
I’ve been fortunate to have Prum Wine several times….. years ago when more affordable….. my recent discovery, Keller… one of his GG wines. Hopefully will have G Max some day. My memory may be faulty, but I think Keller is better. What do you think?
Ja , die 83er Goldkapsel von Jay-Jay-Prüm .... Mitte der Neunziger konnte man die noch bei Dr Manfred Prüm für ca 50 DM auf dem Weingut bekommen , später dann bei Weinland Keiler in Dortmund und anderen Händlern ... und jetzt fast 500 € ... Wahnsinn , aber der Stoff ist es wert !!!
Here where i live, in Republic of Moldova, they mostly produse dry or demi dry Riesling. I actually love it. I have a bottle of sweet Riesling prodused with the help of a mold called Botritis Cinereea, from 2020. Sweet of course. Limited edition from Mileștii Mici winery. Get one while they still have :D Just kidding, you don't have to get a bottle if you don't want to.
No I haven't had a JJ Prüm so far although most of the wines I drink are from the Mosel as well as there are many great wine makers in that wine region but drinking a JJ Prüm is definitely on my list! Thanks for sharings this wonderful wine with us!
@@KonstantinBaumMasterofWine I really did it! Had a 2002 Wehlener Sonnenuhr Auslese that evening and it was really great. Taste of honeydew melon with some citrus and it was very fresh for being that old. Definitely one of the if not the best sweet Riesling I ever had. It only lacked the famous "Prüm-Furz" but who cares?
Hi Konstantin, great Video. I just bought the 1983 vintage of jj prüm wehlener Sonnenuhr Auslese (gold capsule). What about the 83 vintage? Do you have any information about it. I payed about 150,- € for the bottle. I think it‘s a fair price, what do you think?
I had a 2017 Gelt Zillikon GK Auslese to celebrate a new job. Lovely wine, but I think that for sweet wine, in general, there is better value from the Loire, Santorini and from a few Austrian producers, like Kracher.
@@donaldcook3112 Yeah true, but I can't get older vintages at a reasonable price, and all those other wines I mentioned also benefit similarly from 10+ years...
@@KonstantinBaumMasterofWine Im not disagreeing with you re. the Sancerre - just curious how this might pair with some aged Chèvre, a ripe fig and some onion marmalade...
My taste goes to dry maybe slightly sweet rieslings. Living on the east coast of United States, rieslings are often the better tasting offerings at the wineries.
i must be abnormal, eating and drinking does not work for me. i get faded, most often cross-faded, i let the hunger rise before eating and then im done for the day. no more drinking after i ate it totally rekt my digestion.
hey Konstantin, should I pull a trigger on a 2019 J.J. Prum Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Kabinett white capsule? As I've understood due to climate change the kabinet level (especially during a great year like 2019) no longer feel like "watered down", but the prices haven't adjusted to the new reality. Or would you rather aim for the spatlese white capsue? anything above that gets too expensive for me. Thanks

Or would you rather aim for the spatlese white capsue? anything above that gets too expensive for me. Thanks
Yes, buy it but keep it for at least 5 years before opening it.
@@KonstantinBaumMasterofWine thank you very much! Of course I'd store it in the wine cabinet, I was planning to drink it during 2025
ich habe noch einen jim beam aus den 70ern
Probably my favorite white producer anywhere. Certainly in Germany.
