More information on wine critics and ratings

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.

His prime plots of land are in the top due south-facing Niederberg Helden vineyard of Lieser.

Though just a few hundred metres from his father's Brauneberg vineyards, the heavy thicker set grey/blue slate of the Helden vineyard produces heavier wines that sometimes require more initial bottle age before showing their true colours.

Rigorous work in the vineyard and microscopic attention to detail in his cellars, guarantee a consistent production of good wines in poor years and outstanding wines in great years. In fact, Thomas can regularly claim to have the Mosel's lowest yields.

Since 2004, Thomas has been exploiting some vines in the famous Brauneberger Juffer Sonnenuhr vineyard, given to him by his father Wilhelm Haag of the Fritz Haag estate.

Robert Parker (RP) : 92+ Points (2021)
Thomas Haag's 2021 Juffer Sonnenuhr Spätlese is still pretty reductive and shows a bright and lemon-scented nose of ripe and savory Riesling berries. Delicate and fresh on the palate, with some coolish-greenish gooseberry nuances, this is a very fine and elegant, well-balanced, stimulating and saline-finishing JSU that still needs a bit of time. 7.5% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine in July 2022.

Slate, smoke, herbs and complex mineral notes dominate the nose, while on the palate there’s a wonderful finesse to the cool apple and red berry flavours. Linear, fine, complex and slate driven. A grown up Kabinett.
