THE COMPANY
Directly on the banks of the Moselle in a fairytale landscape characterized by dark slate hills overlooking the river, the S.A. Prum winery is an ambassador of a winemaking tradition that has lasted for generations.
The pursuit of the best possible quality is the mantra of this historic company, a founding member of the VDP association, Verband Deutsches Praedikats, an association that groups together the 200 most virtuous producers in Germany.
The 22 hectares owned by the winery are mostly own-rooted and divided among highly regarded vineyards; the management of the vineyard is obviously aimed at enhancing the vineyard and territory with predominantly manual labor and harvests carried out at the perfect stage of ripeness.
Vinification is also strictly minimalist and linked to tradition, with fermentations taking place in stainless steel using natural yeasts to enhance the richness and elegance of the raw material, resulting in incredibly deep and long-lived wines, internationally renowned. These wines are characterized by significant acidity and pronounced minerality derived from the schistous soil rich in slate. Since July 1, 2017, Saskia Prum has been the first female guide of such a prestigious winery.
