JJ Prum Bernkasteler Badstube Spatlese 2022
“This reminds me so much of English hedgerows in summer with their diversity of flowers, berries and herbs. Cool and elegant in spite of the impressive ripeness on the medium-bodied palate. Very polished through the impeccably balanced, subtle finish. Hard to believe that analytically this must have a significant amount of grape sweetness, because it’s almost invisible. Drink or hold.” 95 points, Stuart Pigott, jamessuckling.com
“The 2022 Riesling Bernkasteler Badstube Spätlese again shows a little tease of chervil, a touch of aromatic green citrus, not quite bergamot, but very aromatic. Once these notions have dissipated, a riper sense of citrus comes through, plunging right into Navel orange and tangerine territory. The 2022 is serene, beautifully clear-cut, light-footed, elegant and balanced. (Medium)” 93 points, Anne Krebiehl MW, Vinous
