This famous winery was founded in 1911 by Johan Josef Prüm and in 1920 his son Sebastian started working in the family business. JJ Prüm is without doubt the winery with the most famous riesling wines with almost priceless versions in between (in the overview of 50 most expensive wines in the world is number 5. Joh. Jos Prüm Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Trockenbeerauslese with a price around 10,000 euros!!

The Riesling Spatlese Graacher Himmelreich from JJ Prum has beautiful notes of grapefruit, banana, blackcurrant and lilies. Juicy, distinctly ripe and (slightly) sweet but fresh. A beautiful glass of wine that can be drunk now but will also be just as beautiful in 25 years. The 2019 was one of the best vintages for the Himmelreich Spätlese and the wine has also received 94+ Parker points and 95 Suckling points.

Weingut Prüm (Weingut Johan Josef Prüm) is a winery with a rich history, the roots of the Prüm family have been in the Moselle area for more than 800 years. In 1911 this famous winery was founded by Johan Josef Prüm and in 1920 son Sebastian started working in the family business.

Son Sebastiaan is the founder of the, to this day, recognizable style for which Prüm wines are praised worldwide. Sebastiaan Prüm died in 1969 and on behalf of his sons, Dr. Manfred Prüm and younger brother Wolfgang Prüm, presided over it. Today, the winery is managed by Manfred and his daughter Katharina Prüm.

The house has completely focused on the renovation of the Riesling. Most of the vines are not grafted, this was not necessary because the Phylloxera louse cannot survive among the slate on which the vineyards are grown. Depending on the harvest, Prüm produces between 10,000 and 13,000 boxes annually. The vineyards cover an area of 22 hectares in Wehlener Sonnenuhr, Graacher Himmelreich, Zeltinger Sonnenuhr and Bernkasteler Badstube respectively.
