Product details

  • Variety

    Riesling
  • Pale lemon yellow in the glass. Intense aromas of lemons, minerality, and Riesling hydrocarbons. In the mouth it is sweet, but never cloying thanks to high levels of fine fruity acidity and a massive stuffing of minerally dry extract. Very long and very fine.

Winemaking

This wine is from the legendary Brauneberger Juffer Sonnenuhr vineyard which is an enclave in the Juffer area first planted by the Romans. Here the slope angle reaches 78%. The 1804 Napoleonic classification of the Mosel identified this as the top growth in the area, and in many a year its microclimate is the hottest in all Germany. The vines are trained in the traditional Mosel manner with two shoots tied to a single stake, forming a heart pattern. Harvest is strictly by hand on the extremely steep slopes. The grapes are brought to the winery in small containers and gently de-stemmed, crushed and pressed. The wine is fermented in stainless steel tanks.
