From the same producer

A pure nose of cool slate, limes, white peach and salt is followed by a palate of great balance, intensity and a lovely ripe fruit acidity with focussed notes of fresh pineapple, rock salt and citrus zest, all wrapped up in a wonderfully sleek texture.

In order to promote the reputation of the world famous vineyard locations of "Brauneberger Juffer" and "Brauneberger Juffer Sonnenuhr" even more – even Napoleon counted them amongst the pearls of the Mosel region - Dusemond was renamed Brauneberg in 1925. According to tradition, the 12.2 ha Fritz Haag vineyard, now headed by Oliver Haag, is also known by the name of "Dusemonder Hof".

Vinous (Antonio Galloni) (VN) : 95 Points (2022)

The 2022 Riesling Brauneberger Juffer Sonnenuhr Spätlese opens with an airy, stony aspect, followed by lime and peach in a tart-sweet double-act that is totally mouth-watering. The distinctly sweet palate is enticingly edged with that lime acidity. The palate remains slender, taut, absolutely streamlined and very fine. Concentrated, citric, heightened, thrilling.

James Suckling (JS) : 94 Points (2022)

This has the floral and vanilla bean aromas we associate with this great site for riesling Spatlese wines. Wonderfully vibrant and slatey acidity. Excellent balance, the sweetness easily harmonized by the Amalfi lemon freshness at the very clean, long finish.

Wines & Spirits (W&S) : 93 Points (2022)

Grown on a south-facing slope, this wine features a spectrum of citrus from fresh pomelo to dried Meyer lemons. On the tongue, it’s vibrant and rounded. Considering the warmth of the vintage, the Haags picked at the right moment to retain all this freshness. (3/2024)

Wine Spectator (WS) : 92 Points (2022)

An open-knit style, with a beautiful range of melon, honeyed apple, peach and lilac flavors. Savory elements of smoke and dried herbs add intrigue to the well-defined palate. The finish is streaked with salt and smoke, plus plenty of crushed slate notes. A bit shy now, this will reveal more with time. Drink now through 2040. (3/2024)

Wine Enthusiast (WE) : 92 Points (2022)

A classic style, offering floral, citrus, saline and mineral aromas and flavors. Ripe orchard and stone fruit give it a typical feel midpalate. This is delicate, displaying precision and intensity, and finishing with fine, stony cut.
