About the manufacturer
Joh. Jos. prum
Joh. Jos. Prüm is a legendary winery on the Moselle, renowned for generations for its exceptional Riesling Wines. The family cultivates its vineyards in Wehlen and Graach with a philosophy that combines tradition and precision – resulting in Wines that perfectly capture the essence of the Moselle Valley.
What makes Prüm special is its consistent focus on quality over quantity. The winery works selectively: only the best grapes are vinified, and the classification according to Prädikat (quality level) is based strictly on taste and character, not solely on sugar content. Famous vineyards like the Wehlener Sonnenuhr – one of the top sites on the Moselle – produce Wines under Prüm's guidance that playfully balance fruit, minerality, and delicate sweetness.
The Goldkapsel Auslese Wines are classics for anyone who loves German Riesling: complex, elegant, and with an aging potential that will last for years. But the dry and off-dry versions also demonstrate how diverse and approachable Prüm's style can be.
At Wine In Time you'll find the best selections from this traditional winery – perfect if you're looking for authentic Mosel classics with history and character.

Wehlener Sundial
The Joh. Jos. Prüm Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Auslese 1997 is a testament to great Mosel tradition and perfect ripeness. The Joh. Jos. Prüm winery is among the legendary producers of the Mosel and cultivates the Wehlener Sonnenuhr, one of Germany's most famous Riesling vineyards. The 1997 Vintage was characterized by ideal conditions for lusciously sweet Auslese Wines – and after more than two decades of bottle aging, this wine now unfolds its full complexity.
The grapes were hand-selected; only fully ripe, botrytized berries made it into the press. The slow, cool fermentation in traditional oak casks preserves the finesse and minerality for which Prüm is world-renowned. With only 8% alcohol, the wine remains light-bodied, supported by crystalline acidity and the slate minerality of the Sonnenuhr vineyard.
On the nose, the 1997 Joh. Jos. Prüm Wehlener Sonnenuhr unfolds a bouquet of candied apricots, honeycomb, ripe quince, and delicate petrol notes – typical of a mature Mosel Riesling. On the palate, lush fruit is perfectly balanced: juicy peaches, orange zest, a hint of beeswax, underpinned by vibrant acidity and a saline minerality. The finish is endless, almost ethereal, with a touch of residual sweetness and a freshness that keeps the wine youthful.
At Wine In Time you'll find exquisite rarities like this selection. Order this legendary wine online now and have it delivered to Vienna. Discover our selection of Sweet Wines for even more treasures.
Serve the wine slightly chilled at 10–12°C with fruit-based desserts such as apricot tart or tarte tatin. It also pairs wonderfully with creamy blue cheeses or simply on its own – as meditation in a glass.
