Tasting Notes

Brauneberger Juffer Sonnenuhr

2017 - Brauneberger Juffer Sonnenuhr Riesling Spätlese
The nose comes fresh and crisp with citrus, exotic notes but also apples and pear, great slate spiciness. On the palate it is smooth, fresh and juicy with great slate minerality and beautiful balance. Just lovely!

2016 - Brauneberger Juffer Sonnenuhr Riesling GG
Sooo gentle, sooo elegant. A beauty, in the nose cool, smooth, mineralic, apples, pears, stonefruit. On the palate already very present, drinking so well, fine elegance. You need a second glass. If you like your dry GG gentle, with finesse and long - this is your baby! 

2016 - Brauneberger Juffer Sonnenuhr Riesling Spätlese
Greatly balanced and fresh nose with floral notes, passion fruit, citrus, powerful slate minerality and herbs, on the palate perfectly balanced, juicy, acidity greatly integrated in the slate fruit mix, stays forever... And this baby can even get better!!! 

2016 - Brauneberger Juffer Sonnenuhr Riesling Auslese
Fine, elegant and filigrane in the nose and on the palate, mainly yellow apples, melon and ripe pear in the fruit, elegant slate minerality, fine acidity, very soft and charming on the palate, everlasting with a nice fruit-minerality-mix. 

2015 - Brauneberger Juffer Sonnenuhr Riesling Spätlese
Concentrated fresh fruit with intensity – but light at the same time! We are having the #brauneberger #juffer #sonnenuhr #spätlese #2015 today. In the nose you will find ripe apples, peaches, apricots, but also exotic notes of ripe pineapple and mango. On the palate beautiful slate minerality, fruity acidity, light and dancing but with a voluminous fruit basket. Amazing!

2012 - Brauneberger Juffer Sonnenuhr Riesling Auslese
Liquid elegance, in the nose quite decent, flavors of slate minerality, some floral notes, peach, yellow apples, ripe pear, some quince, on the palate an unfolding beauty, elegant but not arrogant, smooth and silky, great fruit-acidity-balance, not rough, not to spicy, more floral mixed with great slate. Wicked wine!

2011 - Brauneberger Juffer Sonnenuhr Riesling Spätlese
The 2011 comes a little less fresh, but way more balanced, slate, honey and passion fruit in the nose, amazing acidity sweet play on the palate, clearly one of our favorites! 

2008 - Brauneberger Juffer Sonnenuhr Riesling Auslese Goldkapsel
Nose is opulent and still fresh with fresh stone fruit, like yellow plum, apricots and peaches, and exotic fruits like pineapple and passion fruit, nice minerality underlay. On the palate creamy and smooth, with opulent fruit basket, super rich, super dense, could easily be a Beerenauslese, only a bit fresher with nice minerality. Simply a dream of Riesling. 

1998 - Brauneberger Juffer Sonnenuhr Riesling Auslese Goldkapsel
The nose is a ripe pineapple mix with beautiful slate minerality, honey and caramel, slight candy floss, slight licorice. On the palate a super lively acidity, almost dancing, great minerality like it is ten years younger, great donut peach. A perfect proof for the aging potential of Riesling.

1997 - Brauneberger Juffer Sonnenuhr Riesling Auslese
So great, so young! Slate and fresh apples in the nose, spices and herbs, on the palate mild and soft, 20 years old and so clean and elegant. For wines like that Heroes of Riesling was created.

1996 - Brauneberger Juffer Sonnenuhr Riesling Auslese Fuder 6
In the nose deep yellow apples and honey, slight slate minerality, herbs as well. On the palate sooo amazingly great, beautiful mouthfill, long and deep, beautiful minerality-acidity-mix, still young with a beautiful fruit basket of green apples, pear, citrus notes and grapefruit, also aging notes of caramel and honey. Beautiful! Gimme more.

1994 - Brauneberger Juffer Sonnenuhr Riesling Auslese
Great aging of this fantastic Riesling. All we love - honey, raisins, caramel, beautiful acidity, still minerality and herbal notes. Just so great! 

1994 - Brauneberger Juffer Sonnenuhr Riesling Auslese Goldkapsel
A true bomb of aged Riesling. The nose is smooth with herbs and honey, slight caramel, spices like clove, ripe apricots and pineapple. On the palate soft and smooth, with a still very fresh acidity, ripe fruits and lots of honey and herbs. Finishes long, fruity and spicy, orange peel, slightly smoky and ripe apples. Love it! 

Brauneberger Juffer

2016 - Brauneberger Juffer Riesling
You always get to judge wineries the best by looking at their lower range. This is a very fine style of making dry Moselle wine. The nose is filled with citrus notes, some mandarine peel, yellow apples and pear, slight minerality spiciness. On the palate not a pusher, but a very smooth fellow, nice balance of fruit and acidity, nice slate minerality underlay. Finishes creamy with nice fruit notes. A wine in the range of 15 Euros that you can drink and drink and drink…
