Riesling Kabinett Brauneberger Juffer 2022

- 93 points -

The 2022er Brauneberger Juffer Riesling Kabinett -4-, as it is referred to on the consumer label, was made from fruit picked at a low 77° Oechsle on almost 90-year-old un-grafted vines and was fermented down to fruity-styled levels of residual sugar (45 g/l). It offers a beautiful nose made of pear, grapefruit, floral elements, a hint of citrusy-infused whipped cream, and smoke. The wine is gorgeously playful and dances on the palate where a touch of creaminess is beautifully wrapped into tart and zesty elements. The finish is juicy and makes one magically want to go for more. While it will improve with a few more years of bottle aging, this gorgeous Kabinett proves already quite irresistible now.
