Riesling 100%
Fritz Haag is a wine producer located in Brauneberg in on the Mosel river. It produces a complete range of wines made from Riesling, from dry expressions to luscious botrytised wines. The well-known Erste Lage vineyards Brauneberger Juffer and Brauneberger Juffer Sonnenuhr are synonymous with Fritz Haag, which is also known by the name Dusemonder Hof.In total, vineyard holdings cover 19 hectares (46 acres), and the vines are planted on Devonian slate soils on slopes of up to 80 degrees.
The 2019 Brauneberger Juffer Sonnenuhr Riesling Spätlese opens with a bright and coolish, very delicate and filigreed bouquet of herbal/floral aromas intertwined with bright, young spring fruit and aromas of broken slate. On the palate, this is a round, charming, highly finessed and very elegant Spätlese with the lovely fruit and juiciness of the JSU and its unrivaled finesse. The weightless finish is salty-piquant, precise and highly stimulating. This 2019 is a picture-book Spätlese from the Juffer Sonnenuhr.
