"In spite of climate change, this is a very cool and delicate wine, yet it has a stunning brilliance and excellent depth. Long, filigreed finish with stacks of wet stone minerality. From organically grown grapes with Fair'n Green certification. Drink or hold."

"The 2023 Riesling Brauenberger Juffer Kabinett initially offers smoky overtones, which dissipate to reveal red, tart apple. The palate is serenely smooth with a lovely, aromatic tart red apple vibe and an easy flow that stealthily charms you into taking another sip. Vivid, creamy, light and so bright."

"An elegant, delicate style, with perfumed notes of blossoms and Granny Smith apple on a fine-boned frame. Balanced and pure, with racy acidity and crushed slate nicely interwoven for a balanced, bright finish. Drink now through 2030. 100 cases imported."

"The 2024 Riesling Brauneberger Juffer Kabinett is still reduced and smoky on the nose before plunging into a pool of citric freshness and juiciness on the palate. It dives deep into the fruity and slaty citrus allure. You want to stay under and dive even deeper. The 2024 is so fused and united in its stone and fruit. It is light but substantial. What a joy. Medium"

"Clean and refreshing, this is plump with fresh apple flavors that last. There's acidity behind the fruit sweetness, integrated into the layered flavors of the wine."

"This delightful gem dances on the palate. With a playful sweetness and lively acidity, it reveals notes of juicy peach and zesty lime, complemented by a whisper of floral elegance. This wine invites you to linger, making every sip refreshing. Skurnik Wines, Inc. "A.Z."
