ABOUT THE WINE
Joh. Jos. Prüm’s 2016 Bernkasteler Lay Riesling Auslese Goldkapsel is a site-specific Mosel Riesling made from 100% Riesling. The 375mL half bottle comes from a parcel of 50–60-year-old vines in the historic core of Bernkasteler Lay; it was the last parcel picked in 2016.
Expect a discreet, slowly opening bouquet, followed by a racy, fresh palate with finely layered pear, white cherry, slate, honeycomb and floral notes. Fine acidity keeps the sweetness lively, while the finish is clear, precise and well structured. 7.5% alcohol.
