A little more reticence than the Niderberg Helden with salted limes and slate spice on the nose. On the palate this packs more punch and drive, with mineral edges and an invigorating sense of restrained energy.
If Niederberg is all grace this year, Brauneberger Juffer Sonnenuhr is all about vitality. Precise, racy flavours of red apple, ruby grapefruit, slate and a profound and typical minerality are all on show, long, taut and with great nervosity.
