"A distinctive version, with concentration to its bitter-edged dried apricot and kumquat. Density builds, with chamomile and honeycomb accents adding to the complexity. Racy tangerine acidity plays a counterpoint to the gentle sweetness, while the substantial finish is smudged in salt and smoke. 100 cases imported. - KB"

"The slatey intensity of this sleek, barely medium-bodied dry Mosel is remarkable. Terrific focus and precision. Long Amalfi lemon finish that™s pointed, but not sharp. From organically grown grapes with Fair'n Green certification. Drink or hold."

"The 2024 Riesling Brauneberger Juffer feinherb, still slightly smoky with reduction, brings its earthiness to the lemony suffusion on the palate. This is beautifully lithe and slender, with 12 g/L of residual sugar lending immense charm that boosts the fabulous juiciness. Off-dry"

"The 2024 Brauneberger Juffer Riesling feinherb is intense and refined on the generous nose that intertwines ripe fruit aromas with spicy seed and celery notes. The wine opens with a racy attack on the palate, which is concentrated, mineral, complex and juicy but also light and very stimulating. 10.5% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine in March 2026."

"This wonderful barely off-dry Mosel riesling combines slatey acidity and restrained pear and currant aromas with a very elegant medium body and glides over the palate. Very long, graceful finish with stacks of wet stone minerality. From organically grown grapes with Fair'n Green certification. Drink or hold."

"This elegant Riesling balances depth and freshness. A delightful tension between bright acidity and notes of saffron and floral hints creates a captivating experience. It™s like a graceful performance in a glass. Skurnik Wines, Inc. "A.Z."
