Established in 1911 by Johann Josef Prum, though the Prum family had been established around the village of Wehlen since 1156. Today, the estate is managed by Dr. Katherine Prum, Johan’s great-granddaughter. The Sonnenuhr vineyard is marked by a large sundial at the base of very steep slopes. The vines are planted ungrafted in Devonion slate soils and worked entirely by hand. The wine style at J.J. Prüm is “reductive,” that is, marked by a distinct smokiness in its youth. However, this style lends towards great longevity. Keep this bottle from 2028-2041, or decant aggressively if consumed soon.
