"This dry Mosel masterpiece has a noble elegance and delicacy. Stunning minerality on the very graceful, medium-bodied palate. The concentration really becomes apparent in the very long, refined finish. I love the subtle aromas of summer meadows. From organically grown grapes with Fair'n Green certification. Drink or hold."

"The 2023 Riesling Brauenberger Juffer Sonnenuhr Grosses Gewächs opens with a savory nose evoking anise and fennel seed, fringed with crushed yarrow. The palate is lithe, direct, pristine and linear, almost luminous with its insistence. It's light but beautifully direct and bright. This is light-footed elegance out to get you."
